I used: ifconfig lo0 alias a.b.c.d netmask 0xffffff00 to set up an alias, but I have found that none of the other machines can see the new address. I tried using arp -s a.b.c.d x:y:z:.. pub and that seems to work, but I'm not sure if this is the right way to go about setting this up. I haven't seen anyone else mention using arp directly. Does anyone know if this is correct? -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- John Creasey johnc@csdc.toshiba.com.au
