IP Aliasing (if compiled in) is supported directly by the 2.2.x kernels, you
don't need a separate program for handling it, just put a colon and an alias
number after. Like, say, if I want 2 IP addresses on my eth0, you do
'ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1 up', and then 'ifconfig eth0:0 192.168.2.1 up'.
I found that you can actually create 'ifcfg-eth0:<number>' files in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and Mandrake actually does the right thing
setting them up for you.
