There is no ifcfg-aliases in the network-scripts dir. there is ifcfg-eth0:0,
inside the file is

IPADDR="x.x.x.x"

I added to it
NETMASK="255.255.255.224"

but it site actives all the aliases with 255.255.255.0

any ideas

RH 5.1 with 1.12 rev 6

Thanks

I guess you are on redhat-5.1. You can fix this problem by fixing the
script /etc/sysconfig/network-scritps/ifcfg-aliases. Locate the line

        /sbin/ifconfig $arg1 $arg2

and modify it this way

        /sbin/ifconfig $arg1 $arg2 netmask 255.255.255.255

Keep me posted!
