Re: configuring more than one ip for an inteface pemanently (linux)

The RedHat team uses a tool called linuxconf to configure the system, which is a control panel for all system services. Under te section Config/Networking/Server Tasks there is a line named IP Aliases for virtual hosts, where you can select the interface for which you want to make an alias. All you have to do is to add the IP address and the netmask and you're done. Changes are active just after reboot.

does anybody know how we can add more than one ip for NIC(in Redhat Linux 7.2)?
i usually do it by using this command
ifconfig eth0 add <ip addresss> netmask <..............> up

or ;

ip address add 192.168.20.1/24 dev eth0

or
adding it manually to file in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts
but their is no ifcfg-eth0 !!!!!
-------------------------------------------------------------
and it works cuz i can ping it from another machine

BUT when i reboot the machine all of the are gone.
I'm looking for way that these IPs can remain on the interface even after
reboot or shut down

is there anyone who can help me up?

CTRLALTDEL(8)						     Linux Programmer's Manual						     CTRLALTDEL(8)

NAME

       ctrlaltdel - set the function of the Ctrl-Alt-Del combination

SYNOPSIS

       ctrlaltdel hard|soft

DESCRIPTION

       Based  on examination of the linux/kernel/sys.c code, it is clear that there are two supported functions that the Ctrl-Alt-Del sequence can
       perform: a hard reset, which immediately reboots the computer without calling sync(2) and without any other preparation; and a soft  reset,
       which sends the SIGINT (interrupt) signal to the init process (this is always the process with PID 1).  If this option is used, the init(8)
       program must support this feature.  Since there are now several init(8) programs in the Linux community, please consult	the  documentation
       for the version that you are currently using.

       ctrlaltdel is usually used in the /etc/rc.local file.

FILES

       /etc/rc.local

SEE ALSO

       simpleinit(8), init(8)

AUTHOR

       Peter Orbaek (poe@daimi.aau.dk)

AVAILABILITY

       The ctrlaltdel command is part of the util-linux package and is available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/.

Linux 1.2							  25 October 1993						     CTRLALTDEL(8)
