Shawn, is this resolved? I use multiple IPs on our IPcop firewall, and it's working very well. Personally, I'd recommend looking at 1.4b9. The 1.4 version has ALOT of benefits over 1.3, but I'm doing it with 1.3 now, so either should be fine.
The only thing I can think of is that when you port forward to the DNS servers, you're leaving the IP as the default, rather than selecting one of the aliases. Kev.
