Re: IP_ALIAS (kernel 2.2.1)
I will assume that you are running slink because you did not say. I also
assume that the version of "netbase" you are running is 3.11-xx. Download
the "netbase" package from unstable/Potato (v. 3.12) and your IP aliasing
should work normally. For some reason the slink/3.11 version of netbase
doesn't work correctly with the 2.2.x series kernels.
Let me know if this solves your problem.
