if so, i wondered why you didn't just add the extra
interface as an extra interface on the existing IP stack, in which
case you don't need to mess with net.alt.  for instance,
	ip/ipconfig ether /net/ether1 <addresses>
binds a new device interface to the existing IP stack,
with the address parameters you give.  you might
also possibly set iprouting on the interfaces
if you want the server to do that.
