Try  ifconfig interface delete.

I tried delete, but it only works for *additional* ip addresses added using 
the alias command, not the original, primary one.  I can't remember the 
error message.

Have you tried `ifconfig fxp0 -alias 192.168.1.10'?

I stand corrected.
  ifconfig interface delete
did the job;
destroy is what failed.
Thanks.

using the alias command, not the original, primary one.  I can't

You can use something like that:

ifconfig fxp0 inet 10.10.10.1/24 -alias

It will remove address 10.10.10.1/24 from interface fxp0.

Are you specifying the primary IP as an argument to delete? It works
here for me with a primary IP ok:

# ifconfig fxp1 delete 192.168.0.3

Might /etc/rc.d/netif restart resolve this, too?
