Hiya, From CLI - yast System Administration >> Network configuration >> Network base configuration 'Create an additional network' put in your details, then set the device as 'eth0:1' Simple as that :) SuSE 7.3 for network config is a bit weird, i nthe fact it configures in it's rc scripts... RedHat simply go /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:1 and put i nteh details :) Best regards, Steve Wright EliteUKServe EMail: steve.wright@eliteukserve.net Tel: +44 (0) 870 250 7611 On Wednesday 03 March 2004 11:24, Alan Harris wrote:
