Hi,
Is it possible to have ip aliases associated with the loopback device 127.0.0.1. If so where would I find info on how to ifconfig them.


Thanks for your time.

in your /etc/hosts, you would have something like:
Code:

127.0.0.1 devxcomputer.devxnetwork devxcomputer localhost localhost.localdomain devx_alias1 devx_alias2

is this what you want?
