Better:
# cp /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 ifcfg-eth0:1
Edit the file :
DEVICE="eth0" <= change to eth0:0
BOOTPROTO="none"
IPADDR="192.168.1.34" <= different ip address
NETMASK="255.255.255.0" <= different netmask
you can remove the rest of these - as they are assumed by default - or just
leave them there.
ONBOOT="yes"
IPXNETNUM_802_2=""
IPXPRIMARY_802_2="no"
8< list
Then bring up this interface with /sbin/ifup eth0:1
Put this in rc.local or somewhere so that it is taken in at startup.
