I’m no fool. We’re putting multiple ip addresses on our web presence and I noticed a quirk in SUSE this afternoon. Even though the additional addresses are in the same subnet and have the same gateway information as the other address I noticed that the secondary addys wouldn’t route outside of the subnet :\. After beating on it for most of this afternoon, I discovered a bit of a quirk. In order to get the second address to route I had to delete the default gateway and put in the secondary address and then re-enable the default gateway. It worked after that…

*sigh*

UPDATE: add one more step on. You need to remote into the IP Address that you’re adding when you put in N+1 IP Addresses and turn back on the default gateway. And who said Linux wasn’t quirky…
