Hi all, My machine running potato has rtl8139 network card. I have configured it as eth0 and eth0:0 with two ip addresses. I am able to ping to machines in two ip ranges and working fine. Now I have added one more alias as eth0:0 with ip address 192.168.1.10 in /etc/network/interfaces. When I am pinging to the machines in this network (and even to this ip) I am getting "operation not permitted" error. What could be the reason. I have tried adding route manually. My kernel is 2.2.19pre17.
AFAIK operation not permitted looks more like a permission problem that a route problem,
route problems often end up in network unreachable did you try ping as root?
