Why would I be getting:
# ifconfig fxp0 alias 200.46.204.9 ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists
when I know for a fact that it hasn't been configured?
# ping 200.46.204.9 PING 200.46.204.9 (200.46.204.9): 56 data bytes ^C --- 200.46.204.9 ping statistics --- 1 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss
there is nothing even in my arp cache:
# arp -a | grep "(200.46.204.9)" # arp -a | grep "(200.46.204.91)" zer01.net (200.46.204.91) at 00:e0:81:21:d7:f6 on fxp0 [ethernet]

What does the output of "ifconfig fxp0" show before you try the alias?
