You should use the dummy interface for that. Either compile it into your kernel or load it as module ("modprobe dummy" or let kerneld do its work). Then issue the following command, and after it works, add it to /etc/init.d/network: ifconfig dummy0 192.168.43.2 netmask 255.255.255.255 route add 192.168.43.2 Torsten -- I haven't lost my mind -- it's backed up on tape somewhere.
