PS: Below is the code, if anybody is interested. Should be run
before /etc/netstart. To use it you should create a file
/etc/ifconfig.xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
for each network device ("xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx" is the MAC
address). Each line is run with
ifconfig if $line
Here is a sample
inet 172.19.96.1/24
inet alias 172.19.97.1/24
group int_if
Comments are welcome.
