[lumberg]

number)
ifconfig hme0:1 plumb
ifconfig hme0:1 10.5.5.5 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.5.5.255 up

I cant reboot my system to test but:

put the interface name in /etc/hostname.hme0:1
put the IP addr. in the hosts file and match the name with what you put in /etc/hostname.hme0:1 this should bring the interface up when the system boots.

Remember to edit /etc/netmasks if the subnet is different.
10.5.5.0 255.255.255.0

If you go into the /etc/rc2.d directory there should be a S69inet file, edit this file, at the end of the file add the following:

ifconfig hme0#) <IP ADDR> netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast x.x.x.255 up
