Hello, I'm trying to set up iptables to use ethernet aliases as incoming or outgoing devices, take the following command as an example... iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0:1 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.0.0.99 if I attempt to execute that command I receive the following message... WARNING: wierd character in interface 'eth0:1' (No aliases, :, !, or *). but if I then do a `iptables -L -t nat -v` the rule has made it into the chain complete with the supposedly bogus interface designation. So my question is whether this is just a warning as it indicated in the message and will actually function properly or if I'm truly not allowed to use ethernet aliasing in iptables. I have enough other chaos in my system right now that I can't just try to use it to find out, my packets could very well drop for a number of other reasons and I'd never know so a response from someone who has dealt with this before would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Ben.
