Further search lead me to, Bind Multiple IP Addresses to a Single Network Interface Card (NIC) http://www.xenocafe.com/tutorials/linux/redhat/ bind_multiple_ip_addresses_to_single_nic/index.php Add an IP address for Non-SUSE distributions http://www.oclc.org/support/documentation/ezproxy/technote/2l.htm but both need to work on network scripts located in /etc/sysconfig/ network-scripts/, which we don't have in Debian. Then, I looked into /etc/network/interfaces.examples, and add the following to my /etc/network/interfaces: auto eth0.1 iface eth0.1 inet manual pre-up vconfig add eth0.1 up ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 promisc up address 192.168.0.101 post-down vconfig rem eth0.1 But got this: % /etc/init.d/networking restart Reconfiguring network interfaces.../bin/sh: vconfig: not found Failed to bring up eth0.1. I need help.
