im sure youve done this but have you updated the routing table for the new alias ? i use a perl script to add aliases, i just enter the domains into a file and it detects what can be added and adds them (it automatically ignores hosts that are already bound to another machine/network) if you want it let me know. (email directly [EMAIL PROTECTED] or i may miss it)
