Dear all,

I'd followed the FAQ to add another IP alias for the single ethernet
interface in my BSDI system, for example:

   ifconfig ef0 inet 203.66.109.1 
   ifconfig ef0 203.66.109.200 alias

then I try to ping 203.66.109.200 but it doesn't answer me,
How come? Any information will be appreciated!

Tks!
