edit /etc/rc.conf add: ifconfig_xl0_alias="inet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" This will set the alias for the ethernet card (xl0) everytime you restart the box. best wishes, Wai Chan -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Bob Collins Sent: Tuesday, June 06, 2000 4:23 PM To: freebsd newbies Subject: ifconfig -alaias and resart I am running Apache on my BSD box for some web testing. I am using ifconfig to alias an additional ip address to my system for multiple sites. How can I set this alias to be permanent, esp after a reboot. (We have bad power and even the batteries don't hold long enough.) Otherwise, I would like to know if I can place it in /etc/rc so it is aliased on every start?
