virtual eth0

["Markus Mohr" <marksu@netgroup.de>]

Hi!

I´m trying to configure eth0:0 and eth0:1 with /etc/network/interfaces.
Upon entering:

iface eth0:0 inet static
        address 192.168.1.50
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        network 192.168.1.0
        broadcast 192.168.1.255
        gateway 192.168.1.1

I get (after ifup eth0):
Ignoring unknown device eth0=eth0.

I am using a current unstable with kernel 2.2.18.
Manually entering that with ifconfig works fine.

Can anyone help me?

thanks
