File ifcfg-eth0 was found in /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices and in /etc/sysconfig/profiles/default! I copied and modfied file as described and placed them in these locations (one try at a time) and then copied it to just /etc/sysconfig as litereally described below. Still cannot ping the other IP addresses I want host to respond to via single NIC. What could be the trouble?

Manually, you can create new virtual interfaces using the ifconfig command, as follows: ifconfig eth0:0 a.b.c.d netmask k.l.m.n ifconfig eth0:1 e.f.g.h netmask k.l.m.n and so on... And to have all this automatically setup on boot, copy the /etc/sysconfig/ifcfg-eth0 file to /etc/sysconfig/ifcfg-eth0:0 file, and edit this new file with the required parameters, and your virtual IP will come up on boot next time. -- Anand Buddhdev http://anand.org -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
