I set a virtual IP interface like this: ifconfig de0 194.64.170.15 alias netmask 0xffffffff Problems: - I can't delete this interface. I studied the man pages for ifconfig, but everytime I try to delete the alias I delete the entiere interface, so I have to reconfigure at the computers terminal. - I can't find any command which lists all the alias interfaces. ifconfig -au doesn't show them - web servers work fine on virtual IPs, but I can't get bind to work on a virtual IP. So I can ping the virtual interface, but a dns request times out. Can someone here help me? Regards, Ulf Schmidt
