Fine them. "The newer way to configure multiple addresses on one interface is to use the up and down mechanism to call ip" written in the Debian wiki sounded quite definitive to me. > And it > seems very reasonable to me.

It is acceptable as a temporary workaround and should be clearly advertised as such. I would not have liked it as a final new way to assign multiple addresses to a single interface. I do not like mixing ifupdown options (address, netmask, gateway...) and up/down commands to configure the same things either, this is not consistent. If you are going that way, why not use the "manual" method and do all the configuration with up/down options ? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
