Current distributions can do that vconfig stuff for you within the
network configuration scripts. Depending on your distribution you have
to adapt your config files. No matter who configures your interfaces,
before you start heartbeat you should have one configured interface in
each lan/vlan e.g:

eth0 with IP 1.2.3.4
eth0.65 with IP 2.3.4.5

In your heartbeat config configure IPaddr2 resources where you
reference to "eth0.65", and you will end up with an alias on your vlan
tagged interface eth0.65:

eth0 with IP 1.2.3.4
eth0.65 with IP 2.3.4.5
eth0.65:0 with IP 2.3.4.7 <-- alias added by heartbeat
