I seemed to recall that one could "multinet" an interface, eg:

ifconfig eth0   1.2.3.4
ifconfig eth0:1 2.3.4.5

When I try this, though, I'm informed,
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device

Which would make sense if "ifconfig eth0:1" didn't return:
eth0:1    Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:02:B3:10:A3:ED
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          Interrupt:11

What am I missing?

Thanks!

P.S.  Ifconfig's manpage was sadly uninformative...
