I havent figured out how to manage those files.. The original script creates dozens of aliases - one per destination, by replacing first Xxx with 127. This makes it intuitive where alias "points" to. Now with each file having the same name (lo:<port>) imnot sure how to manage these aliases.
I want to add, that I suspect that im missing something obvious and/or just dont understand how network stack works now. Any help is very much appreciated, since all my information is from rhel one page guide , some blog and just trying to get aliases to work.
