The Caboteria / Tech Web / DebianNetworking (revision 1)
(other DebianTips)

Network configuration in /etc/network/interfaces .

Multi-home hosts are possible, make sure that the kernel has "IP: aliasing support" built in. It appears as if you need at least one device named, for example, ethX. If you define, say, an ethX:0 and and ethX:1 then ifconfig won't show them, but if one of them is ethX then both show up OK.

For some reason pump doesn't like the :0 aliases so if you're using dhcp then it has to be on ethX.
