If I understand the question "Using Multiple servers on the same
ethernet..."
The eth0:x is a logical designator specific to each machine. Therefore,
yes, server 1 and server 2 can each have an eth0:24, assuming of course that
they each have unique IP addresses.

Subject: virtual host limitations
Does anyone know what, if any, limits are there on number of virtual hosts
we can create? In all cases below, I would be assigning a unique IP address
to each virtual host, these IP addresses spanning multiple class C address
blocks.
Can I ifconfig eth0:1, eth0:2, etc to my heart''s content, or is it
gonna
barf when I get to eth0:255 or some such number?
As a second issue, is there a pseudo-limit on virtual hosts based upon how
many open files are allowed?
Using Multiple servers on the same ethernet - is it possible to
ifconfig eth0:24 on server 2 if server 1 already has someone on it''s
etho:24?
Can use of multiple servers increase somehow any of the limitations that may
exist in the number of virtual hosts that can be created.
Using Intel P3-450, ASUS P2BLS, 256meg ECC Ram,U2W SCSI 9 gig. RH6.0 Secure
Server''s hardware listed in case this poses some limitation that I
might be
overlooking.
Thanks for any advice/suggestions/pointers.
