I have a network, 216.178.140.xxx, which my box is part of. My box, bunny, has a main ethernet (eth0) ip as 216.178.140.4. It's gateway is 216.178.140.1, This is all class C of course.
In addition, I have the whole block of IPs from 216.178.140.240 to 216.178.140.255 all assigned as virtual ethernet devices: eth0:0 thru eth0:15. However, if I log into the system (usually at 216.178.140.240, eth0:0) and try to ping any of my other virtual ips, I get no response. I hav included the route -n and ifconfig output as an attachment. uname -a prints: Linux gerf 2.0.36 #2 Sun Feb 21 15:55:27 EST 1999 i686 unknown This is a Debian 2.1 system with updates from the master site. If I am missing any info, I can provide it. Hopefully you can help as the documentiation is rather short, and doesn't mention any problems like this. Ciao! -- If there's anything more important than my ego around, I want it caught and shot now. --Zaphod (Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy) The Doctor What: <fill in the blank> http://www.gerf.org/~docwhat/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] (finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] for PGP key) KF6VNC
