Could you instead expand on what it is you're trying to do? Why would your system be responding for IP address x.x.x.x if it didn't already have some interface (other than your additional loopback) plumbed on that address, or an explicit arp entry tagged as "pub"? But if you really insist on doing it the way you're trying, try creating /etc/hostname.lo0 with the contents 127.0.0.1 up \ addif x.x.x.x -arp netmask 255.255.255.255 up (replacing the x.x.x.x, obviously) That may set the NOARP flag on lo0 as well as lo0:1, but I can't imagine that would matter. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
