Hi

I'm getting the same problem - running gated, and it seems that it
deletes the alias addresses!


I have to add them by hand to get it to work...

I first do the normal

	ifconfig ed1 196.34.54.9 alias netmask 0xffffffff

Then, I ping it. If it doesn't reply, I repeat the command, with a 
different netmask:

	ifconfig ed1 196.34.54.9 alias netmask 0xffffff00

This gives me 'file exists', and I repeat the first one again,
ping, try the second one, and so on until it works. Fun! 

I need gated to route the incoming PPP lines - if anyone can 
help me fix this... a free weekend in Cape Town!
