    we moved our server to a new location and changed the ips. The problem is that now ipaliases try to add the ips on interface eth2 while it doesn't exists we only have eth0.

    How do we change ipaliases to work with eth0?

    Thanks

    Hello :)

    Check to ensure the ETHDEV device is properly configured:

    Code:
    grep ETHDEV /etc/wwwacct.conf
    You may need to edit /etc/wwwacct.conf and update the ETHDEV value to eth0.

    Thank you.

    thank you. Thats what we did, but it did not change untill we rebooted.

    Could you verify what failed to change until a reboot? Note the network configuration itself is separate from the cPanel configuration, so restarting the network service (e.g. "service network restart") is likely the action you need to perform instead of a system reboot for those type of changes.

    Thank you.

    I am happy to see the issue is now resolved after the reboot. Feel free to let us know if you encounter any additional issues.

    Thank you.
