I have a problem with adding a virtual interface to the ethernet card.
I have put an IFCONFIG command in /etc/init.d/network for the virtual
interface:
ifconfig eth0:1 inet 208.21.250.3 netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 208.21.250.255
These are the messages that are logged during startup:
Jul 18 21:53:45 dns2 kernel: eth0: RealTek RTL8139 at
0xf600, IRQ 11, 00:00:b4:bd:cd:5c.
Jul 18 21:53:45 dns2 kernel: net_alias_dev_create(eth0:1):
unregistered family==2
The virtual interface does not until I manually execute /etc/init.d/network
when the interface is added.
I either have the virtual specifications in the wrong place or there is a
timing problem.
Some guidance will be appreciated.
