Is there any reason why one interface should NOT have two IP addresses =
??

My reason is to do with testing NAT .... I've got a problem thats been =
driving me
to distraction for ages & because it involves one of two tun's it costs =
a mint to keep=20
dialling the incoming line to test changes. If I can try things on a =
regular ethernet=20
interface I might have a chance of seeing whats not right without =
enriching Tel$tra \any further.

I guess the second (private) address is assigned similarly to the first =
(public) one
in /etc/rc.conf ??=20
