/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-lo - setting multiple IP-addresses

26 Aug 2006

      I'm trying to assign a virtual IP to the loopback interface 'lo': 

/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-lo:

# Loopback (lo) configuration
IPADDR_1=127.0.0.1/8
NETWORK=127.0.0.0
BROADCAST=127.255.255.255
STARTMODE=onboot
USERCONTROL=no
IPADDR_2=192.168.2.231/32

Can anyone spot why this isn't working?
