Date: Wed, 24 Apr 1996 16:53:52 +0200 Organization: Marben SA-NV Lines: 31 Message-ID: <317E4080.41C6@marben.be> NNTP-Posting-Host: gatekeeper.marben.be Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Mozilla 2.0 (X11; I; IRIX 5.3 IP22) I've seen this q? in the archives but no answer ... Does any of us have experience using more than 2 IP addresses over the same interface ? I've done a small test with a 2.1.0 release and an ed driver, and it seems to work quite well with 7 IP addresses. Does any of you know of - the upper limit to the nr of IP addresses per I/F ? - possible issues ??? The goal is to have a limited number of ethernet interfaces offering services to the apache web server. JPM -- Jean-Pierre Morant c/o MARBEN S.A./N.V.
