Just to follow up - we did get IP aliasing to work. It turned out we did not have the kernel built correctly after all. I guess 'make menuconfig' was just too easy for me! I'm glad it works - it would have seemed silly to have to install two Ethernet adapters, both connected to the same cable. -- Robert (Robin) Ristow - Senior Engineer Voice: (770) 447-6831 JHK & Associates (An SAIC Company) Fax: (770) 449-7268 3500 Parkway Lane, Suite 600, Norcross, GA 30092 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
