Hi,

I'm running 2.2.2-RELASE, and my /etc/rc.conf looks like this:

network_interfaces="de0 lo0"	# List of network interfaces (lo0 is loopback).
ifconfig_de0="inet 199.33.206.1  netmask 255.255.255.192"
ifconfig_de0_alias0="inet 199.33.206.10  netmask 255.255.255.192"
ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1"	# default loopback device configuration.

I get the following message during boot up when rc.network is doing the 
ifconfig commands:

	ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists

However, everything seems to be OK and the alias address is created for 
de0. Why is it complaining and what could I have done to cause this?

On another note, I did install kerberos, but have can I get the utilities 
not to use it? I plan to enable it later on when I've got the system 
stable. I checked all of the kerberos man pages.

Thanks,
Kory
