Could you help me with this one You have aliased three additional IPs to a NIC. You cannot add routes to those aliases, only individual IP addresses. You will either have to come up with a routing scheme that routes_eth0 fully satisfies or pony up the cash for three NIC cards. I'd go for option 2 - NICs are dirt cheap. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
