If so, you can do this (at least that's what I do): # cd /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts # cp eth0 eth0:1 edit eth0:1 to something like this: --- cut --- DEVICE=eth0:1 ONBOOT=yes NETWORK=192.168.1.0 IPADDR=192.168.1.1 BROADCAST=192.168.1.255 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 NOZEROCONF=yes --- cut --- This is if eth0 is configured with static IP (can't have dhcp and ip aliases). After this # ./ifup-aliases eth0 and that's it. If you want to make it a router/firewall it's better (more, it's a must) to have two network cards - one with real IP and one with local. -- Regards, Doncho N.
