Thank you for your help. Problem is solved, but I don't know what fixed it though! Here is what I have done. 1. Just to isolate the issue, removed the shorewall package and booted the system, still the same (ie no aliases showed up for second isp) 2. Replaced all the isp's IPs with private class C, with one alias and it showed up along with all others 3. Now replaced the private class C with isp's IP address and just one alias and that showed up. then put in the remaining and those showed up as well 4. Added showewall package and still aliases showed up still. Then I restored the default setting for ADD_IP_ALIASES=Yes and the restart still worked. Now the system is working as expected, but as I said, I don't know what was the culprit before and no idea what fixed it. Thanks to you and all others who responded. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
