Yes, this is not the standard way of doing this. Assuming you have the
netcfg utility, and X running, it is quite simple to add an alias.
Otherwise, copy the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 to
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:0 and modify it as necessary.
Restart the networking with "ifup ifcfg-eth0:0"
