Hi,
If you do this, are all packets transparently routed between the aliases, or do you have to use masquerading, with all the potential protocol problems, and port forwarding?
I think iptables didn't work with interface aliases because a iptables command on a alias produces a warning like this: ~> iptables -A INPUT -j ACCEPT -i eth0:217 Warning: wierd character in interface `eth0:217' (No aliases, :, ! or *). So I use DNAT for my servers in the dmz. s.a. http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-security/2002-May/0415.html so long... Kai
