Thanks Oliver, 

  I didnt have a test system to play with and I didnt find the ifconfig man 
pages very clear and it didnt specify if there could be more than one alias 
per interface (I already had one configured) and I didnt want to change the 
IP of the existing alias. But seeing that you have mutliple aliases I gave 
it a go and it worked fine! Thanks a lot! 

cheers Andy.
