Ethernet Adpater

[Kevin Smith]

Hi All, Well, Debian Linux 3.0r1 (powerpc) installed and working like a dream, well just about anyway. ;) I'm trying to work out the ifconfig tool and how to assign more than 1 IP address to the ethernet card.  I have an IP address assigned to eth0, however, I don't know how to assign another IP address to it. This is (bizarrely enough) easy in Windows 2000 as I currently have about 8 IPs on the ethernet card, but how do I do it with Linux? I thought I could do something like this: ifconfig eth1 up.  But it reports: No such device. Any ideas?  Unless of course ifconfig is not infact the correct tool...? Thanks, Kevin
