Hi,

Just a quickie:  If I have 2 ip addresses in one box,

ip1 --> eth0
ip2 --> eth0:1
as every number in computer starts with zero, so u can use virtual ip eth0:0

and I want to make ip2 the default source ip address for all my
connections, how do I do it?
simply assign your src ipaddr to ip2 using ifconfig

# ifconfig eth0:0 <your_ip_addr> netmask <your_subnet>

adn dont forget to set your gateway:

# route add default gw <your_gateway_for_this_network>

Thanks!
