Possible Syntax Error "interfaces" (Ubuntu 6.10)

[Karl-Heinz Schulz]

I found my mistake - I forget to add eth0:0 to auto eth0  - auto eth0 eth0:0

I tried to enable a second IP address on my NIC without much success.

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system

# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface

auto lo

iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface

auto eth0

iface eth0 inet static

        address 207.59.215.24

        netmask 255.255.255.224

        network 207.59.215.0

        broadcast 207.59.215.31

        gateway 207.59.215.1

        # dns-* options are implemented by the resolvconf package, if
installed

        dns-nameservers 66.255.85.9 66.255.85.9

iface eth0:0 inet static

        address 207.59.215.23

        netmask 255.255.255.224


I receive host unreachable when trying to ping 207.59.215.23 - what am I
missing?

TIA
