adding another IP to eth0

[YCL]

Hello all,<br><br>I understand that Linux (RH) allows a network card to have multiple IP addresses.&nbsp;&nbsp;But I can't find the command for adding another IP to my ethernet card&nbsp;&nbsp;eth0.&nbsp;&nbsp;I need to do this from the command prompt because for some unknown reason Linuxconf does not work properly in this machine. It often crashed with core dumped suddenly.<br><br>Does anyone know the command for assigning a second IP to eth0?&nbsp;&nbsp;I have looked into&nbsp;&nbsp;ifconfig, but could find the info from the man pages.&nbsp;&nbsp;Any ideas? Has anyone successfully done this before?<br><br>Thanks.<br><br>-YCL<br><br><br>

1. Go to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts.<br>2. 'cp ifcfg-eth0 ifcfg-eth0:0'<br>3. edit ifcfg-eth0:0 and make the needed changes.<br>4. ifconfig -a<br><br>Works for me but still won't show up in linuxconf.<br><br>Emory
