That should not make any difference....

just make sure your main static IP address is eth0 or eth1 or eth2 etc..

make all the other ips the virtual interfece (ie eth0:1 eth1:2 etc etc..)

You will be fine if you do that.

Sweet!!!!

This might do the trick *BUT*

My DSL provider does authentication via the card mac address..... Because of
this I don't think they will let me have 2 IP's to 1 mac.....


thoughts?

yes, there is a better way..

you can have multiple IP's assigned to one ethernet card...

so for example:

eth0      =     203.59.87.254
eth0:0  =   203.59.6.252
eth0:1  =   xxx.xxx.xx.xxx

eth1: some other IP.
eth1:1 another IP.

I have a linux box with three network cards in it..

1 is for the ADSL connection and hosting the live public IP's associated
with it.
2 is for a 192.168.0.0/24 network
3 is for a 10.0.x.x network...

using /etc/sysconfig/static-routes you can make the whole lot talk to each
other..

Hey Guys!

Ok I have a box, acting as a firewall / router. All is good. It has 2 NIC
cards in it of course....

Ok now I might be going way out, and maybe someone can tell me a better way
to do this.......

I have 2 static IP's and I want them both to run into the same box.

I want to put 4 NIC cards in the box. 2 (1 for each static IP) and 2 for
non-routable.

The reason for this... I want to have some mail servers and webservers on
one network (192.168.0.1) and then have another network for the office
(10.10.10.1) I would like to have my office people able to surf the net and
be on a dif subnet then the webservers.. so no one monkeys around....

Is this a good way to do it? Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
Dan
