Here's a section from my /etc/network/interfaces file: # # Loopback interfaces. # # We define the standard lo loopback interface as well as two aliases # on it (lo:1 and lo:2). These interfaces are used to run private DNS # servers (lo:1 for private root DNS servers and lo:2 for private non- # root DNS servers). This use of private DNS server IP addresses is # documented at http://cr.yp.to/djbdns/faq/cachex.html . auto lo lo:1 lo:2 iface lo inet loopback iface lo:1 inet static address 127.53.0.1 network 127.53.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 iface lo:2 inet static address 127.53.0.2 network 127.53.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
