Any host which is on more than one network interface (for example a firewall or a router) will have more than one IP address. It may also have more than one hostname. Routing determines which interface is used for any given packet. If you have a Virtual Private Network your virtual IPs will be different from your physical IPs, and routing may still be needed, but there may only be a single physical interface. There are many other reasons why multiple IPs might exist for a single host, and a few reasons why a single IP might be used by several hosts. :) -- 73, Ged.
