Restarted network, IP's gone?

Hey,

I added a bunch of ip(v6) addresses using the 'ip managament' tool in Direct Admin. After that I did `/etc/init.d/network restart` because of some other settings I changed (on the command line). To my astonishment however, this also caused my ipv6 addresses to get lost; meaning that DA still shows them, but that ifconfig and `ip addr show` don't.

Now how do I reattach those ip's to my network interface?

Tnx.
 
Did you run:

Code:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/startips start
 
DirectAdmin uses it's own method for adding IP#s because different OS Distributions don't all do it the same way; this makes it easy for DirectAdmin to be compatible with different OS Distributions.

You might want to add the /etc/rc.d/init.d/startips start line to the startup script for network.

If so, be sure to add it both to start and restart sections, after the default system-set IP#s are started.
