CentOS virt - Oct 2011 - onboot=yes not working for eth0.x:y interfaces?

Hi,
I ran into a Problem when using alias interfaces with vlans on a centos 5 box.
When I define such an interface and do a "service network restart" the
alias interface doesn't get started. Starting it manually works fine.
Also after changing DEVICE=eth0.10:0 to DEVICE=eth0:0 in the config file 
the interface is started after a network restart.

Does anyone have an idea what the problem might be or a suitable workaround?

Regards,
   Dennis

Hi,

Why do you want to have virtual interface over vlan interface ? These virtual
interfaces are for VMs ?
