| Yes, it is correct. I used the ALIAS keyword many times when I was using only one NIC at my server, doing some black magic to it could see the Internet and the computers (all connected to the same hub) but the computers could not see the internet nor the internet see them. It works like a charm. |

Yup. You can also take advantage of a nifty feature of OS/2's implementation of TCP/IP: you can issue this command at any command prompt. For example, you can add an alias IP and later drop it. As far as that goes, you can change IP addresses on the fly, and/or switch into or out of dynamic-IP mode with DHCP. Linux also has this capability, but its syntax of the commands is somewhat different. In Windoze, if you want to change your IP settings, you have to reboot before they take effect. (Funny, you do a lot of rebooting in Windoze!)
