Re: ifconfig network resolution

Experimenting from the command line, I find myself puzzled about the
arguments for ifconfig.

Reading the manual, it would appear that the arguments for ifconfig
should be something like this:

    ifconfig eth0 netmask 255.255.255.224 netmask 255.255.255.224
broadcast 10.19.23.223 10.19.23.94

But the command returns with

SIOCSIFNETMASK: Can't allocate this address.
SIOCSIFBRDADDR: Can't allocate this address.

You set the mask twice.
The address must be set before the mask and broadcast address.
