You can just add as many ip addresses to each physical card as you like. I forget the exact syntax, but check man pages for "ifconfig" and look for "aliases". Chances are your distro already has support for this. For example in gentoo you edit /etc/conf.d/net and edit the aliases line. Different configs for all "normal" distros, but same idea _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
