Greetings All...

I went to add a new IP address to my system today, and it says:

All Requested Ips were already active
System has 0 free ips.
Skipping 68.15x.xxx.xxx .. already added
Yet, that IP is not listed ANYWHERE in the system, with the exception of the "reserved IP" section (IP Functions -> Show/Edit Reserved IPs).

I have 3 boxes in there... my main shared IP, a blank entry, and the IP I want to add (yet cannot).

I something corrupt here or is there a file/script that needs to be executed to clean this stuff up?

Thanks for any help here...

Same Issue

I have the same issue where I've previously added in the IP range: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx-xxx, but now they are not listed anywhere and when trying to add them back it does state the following:

All Requested Ips were already active
System has 0 free ips.

Skipping 10.12.3.171 .. already added


The only place they are listed in the system is in the Show/Edit Reserved IPs listing, not when assigning IPs to the account.

Any help would be appreciated.

Did you add them through the WHM IP manager?

Do the IP's show while running ifconfig on the command line? If you added them and they are not showing up there, they are not bound for some reason. If the ip is not bound, it will not show up in the list but it will however still show up on the reserve ip's list.

Try
Code:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/ipaliases restart
that may help depending on what's going on.

Also check
Code:
chkconfig --list ipaliases
and make sure 2, 3, 4, 5 are on. Those must be on or your ip's will not work on boot.

Also check /etc/ips to see if they are listed. Check /etc/ipaddrpool to see what's free for an account to use.
