Hi,

    I have a FreeBSD box that I would like to create an alias for 
that is on another subnet.  Both subnets are on the same physical 
wire.  I have used this command:

ifconfig ed0 alias 168.26.195.19 netmask 255.255.255.0

The original address for ed0 is 168.26.193.19.  When I do the above, 
I get messages on the consoles of other FreeBSD machines on the 
network that say:
"/kernel: arplookup 168.26.195.19 failed: host is not on local 
network"

Am I missing something, something to do with gateways or routes?
Please help.

Thanks in advance,
C.P.
