kindly confirm

Hi Jason,

I too have the same problem...please confirm that I
need to replace the IPADDR and GATEWAY with the
corresponding IP addresses or not (means I need to
replace xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with respective alias IP or
not). I know it sounds silly, but I can't take a
chance  of rebooting the machine as my configuration
are UP at this point of time. Please verify thesame
for me.


DEVICE=eth0:1
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=static
IPADDR=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
NETMASK=255.255.254.0
GATEWAY=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
HWADDR=00:00:00:00:00:00

Regards

Opesh Alkara
