Multiple IP's Under ISPConfig

In my present installation of ISPConfig I would like to utilize a primary IP 65.197.xxx.xx2 dedicated only to my own domain(s) on this server.
In addition I would like to be able to utilize a different IP for client web hosts.

I have added another IP to the IP List in ISPConfig to be used only for web-hosting clients 65.197.xxx.xx8.

I edited '/etc/network/interfaces' as follows

Code:

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface (WAN)
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 65.197.xxx.xx2
        netmask 255.255.xxx.xxx
        network 65.197.xxx.xxx
        broadcast 65.197.xxx.xxx
        gateway 65.197.209.xxx

# Primary network interface (2nd IP)
iface eth0:1 inet static
        address 65.197.xxx.xx8
        netmask 255.255.xxx.xxx

After saving the changes I restared networking '/etc/init.d/networking restart'

I can't seem to ping the second IP at this point though (local OR remote)...

How do I make addresses past the primary network interface address to be available too?


Thank you for your help.

Regards

 

Like this:

auto eth0:1
iface eth0:1 inet static
address 65.197.xxx.xx8
netmask 255.255.xxx.xxx
network 65.197.xxx.xxx
broadcast 65.197.xxx.xxx
gateway 65.197.209.xxx

 

Outstanding!

Thank you very much, I thought the directions I followed from a Google search seemed a bit week.
