Hi,
i have a small problem, i know i can solve it on an other way, but i wanted to use the gentoo builtin features.
For example:
| Quote: | IP: 83.64.59.226
Netmask: 255.255.255.240 |
i setup my eth0 interface with these values:
| Quote: | | iface_eth0="83.64.59.226 broadcast 83.64.59.239 netmask 255.255.255.240" |
Now i want to bind 83.64.59.227 to the same interface
| Quote: | | alias_eth0="83.64.59.227" |
Why i dont get the same broadcast or networkmask i used for eth0?
Look at my ouptput
| Quote: | eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:BF:10:F3:C5
inet addr:83.64.59.226 Bcast:83.64.59.239 Mask:255.255.255.240

Is that a bug or is there a way i can add the broadcast/netmask to the alias? Like i said at the begining, i can easy add these values with an ifconfig command, but i wanted to use the defaultscript for that

I dunno whats going on there.
I just configure an IP for an alias for my eth0.
Maybe it's because of your netmask it's getting confused? |
