Hi every-one !

I was wondering why, when I reboot my server, one of the IP that I have enterred with DA doesn't want to "work"
I have to log on the server and make a little ifconfig in order to add it.
I have try deleting this IP from DA and reinstall it, still doesn't work ! :'(

How can I add directly to the OS (I use a Redhat 9.0) ??
 
Is this just one particular IP address out of many or only the 2nd IP address?

DirectAdmin reads the list of IP's you created through DirectAdmin and runs the ifconfig command to initiate those IP's on the ethernet device.
If if you can find some hints as to why it's failing you can possilby modify the script DirectAdmin uses to have it add properly in /usr/local/directadmin/scripts I think.
 
The IP#s DA controls are found at:

/usr/local/directadmin/data/admin/ips

You should look in this directory to see if there's a file for the IP# that's giving you problems, and if the information is added correctly.

You should also try adding the IP# manually to see if you get an error message.

It was the second IP.
Was because I oppen my files, for the ips and everything was good. I had to reboot the server now it is an other IP that is bugging :s
 
It appears to me that you may be adding IP#s that use different netmasks.

Are you?

Ok

I have 9 IPs on my server.
All are added by DirectAdmin (except the default one, of course :))
Every time I reboot I have one IP (always the same) that doesn't want to be added to my eth0

If i del it from DA then re add it, it works.
If I add it manually with the ifconfig eth0:9 ip it works 2
 
That's going to take logging in to your server to debug.

I'd suggest contacting DirectAdmin support.
