I don't remember needing this module when I worked with IP aliases, but it
depends on which kernel you're running.  If you're using the small version
of dachstein, a lot of IP stuff that used to be compiled in by default is
now disabled or compiled as modules (the 'normal' flavor is the equivelent
of what shipped with my Materhorn & Eiger disks).  If there's an ip_alias
module for your kernel, I'd suggest at least trying it.

Also, I'm not sure how the ifconfig command returns alias information, and I
*KNOW* you can be much more flexible with interface naming using the
iproute2 command rather than ifconfig.  What does "ip addr" say?
