I'm trying to setup multiple IPs on one box.
Simple enough, use virtual IPs to latch them on to the nic.
Running fedora btw.

So I type: /sbin/ifconfig eth0:0 new.ip.add.ress netmask 255.255.255.255 up

now ifconfig returns this:

*edit*
all fixed now, thanks!


[root@loki]# /sbin/ifconfig

all looks fine, but I can't ping the address.
Thoughts? pointers on what I'm effing up?
Do I need to restart some service?
