I went through the same sort of thing recently.  you need to
ifconfig_fxp0_alias0="inet 207.188.145.196 netmask 0xffffffff"
once the netmask has been changed, it will work fine

tray# uname -a
FreeBSD tray.dynamsol.com 4.2-STABLE FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE #0: Mon Nov 27
07:22:16 MST 2000     puppet@tray.dynamsol.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/FREEBSD
i386

from /etc/rc.conf:
ifconfig_fxp0="inet 207.188.145.195  netmask 255.255.255.240"
ifconfig_fxp0_alias0="inet 207.188.145.196 netmask 255.255.255.240"
ifconfig_fxp0_alias1="inet 207.188.145.197 netmask 255.255.255.240"
ifconfig_fxp0_alias2="inet 207.188.145.198 netmask 255.255.255.240"

Accessing these IP's from outside the server works fine.

from the server:
tray# ping 207.188.145.196
PING 207.188.145.196 (207.188.145.196): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Host is down
ping: sendto: Host is down

from a workstation:
Pinging 207.188.145.196 with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from 207.188.145.196: bytes=32 time=150ms TTL=251

Any idea why I can't access the aliases from the server?
