Package: ifupdown
Version: 0.6.8
Severity: important

Hello,

I have an Etch machine (i686) which sometimes fails to bring up aliased
interfaces on reboot, coming online with only the primary IP address.
When I log in and say "ifup -a", all aliases are brought up without any
problem.

My /etc/interfaces looks very similar to this:


auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 192.168.5.18
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        gateway 192.168.5.1

auto eth0:1
iface eth0:1 inet static
        address 10.1.1.1
        netmask 255.255.255.0

auto eth0:2
iface eth0:2 inet static
        address 10.1.2.1
        netmask 255.255.255.0

auto eth0:3
iface eth0:3 inet static
        address 10.1.3.1
        netmask 255.255.255.0

auto eth0:4
iface eth0:4 inet static
        address 10.1.4.1
        netmask 255.255.255.0

auto eth0:5
iface eth0:5 inet static
        address 10.1.5.1
        netmask 255.255.255.0

auto eth0:6
iface eth0:6 inet static
        address 10.1.6.1
        netmask 255.255.255.0

(only with different IP numbers)



Kind regards,
