pages for "ifconfig" and look for "aliases".
Right getting the hang of this now, managed to set up aliases for eth0 named
eth0:0 and eth0:1 with the correct Ip addresses but how can I route with
them? When I do something like ip route add default dev eth0:0 it complains
that it cant find eth0:0 as its not a real adapter. I've been searching on
google to no avail and have come to a bit of a full stop.
Cheers.
