I think you got the wrong mailling list. This mailling list is
for issues dealing with Ethereal.

I am guessing that you are a Linux user. You might want to read
the Linux Net HOWTO at:

http://howto.tucows.com/LDP/HOWTO/Net-HOWTO.html

BTW, you treat aliased interfaces just as any other interface. You
can use ifconfig with either "eth" or "eth:0", and after that,
set up your routing table as normal.
