Hi Marc, I don't pretend to know anything about Address Resolution and Routing, but one thing I know (through many hours of frustration), is that an aliased address (in your case, somehting like em0:23), IF the ip address being aliases, belongs in the same subnet as anotherone on the same machine, the second one must use a 255 subnet ( /0 ?). example: em0 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0 em0_0 192.168.0.2 255.255.255.255 ... em0_23 10.10.10.10 255.255.255.192 em0_43 10.10.10.11 255.255.255.255 em0_59 10.10.10.15 255.255.255.255 Hope this helps, if not soory about the waste of time! -Grant
