I posted this on good Friday and only got one reply, figure folks were off.
I also posted it to a SCO news group and got 0 replies.  I guess this is a
strange problem.

I have a SCO box that needs an alias added to it's nic.  When I add the
alias using "ifconfig net0 alias ..." all looks good and the routing table
is also updated.  When I ping the alias from another host, on the same
subnet as the alias, it works.  But when I ping another host from the SCO
box the pings don't return.  It looks like the SCO box is sending the pings
with the wrong source IP address in the packet.  Has anyone experienced this
or have an idea what I could be doing wrong?  I've tried with two different
SCO boxes and both have the same problem.

Thanks.
