Hi, Having problems sending data over an ifconfig alias address.
To create the alias address i am using: $ ifconfig ppp0 alias <extra ip local address> <remote gateway addr> netmask 255.255.255.0
Where ppp0 is already up, (and set by the VPN server as a dynamic IP address). But our aim is to assign locally a static IP address. So that can be bind()'d to. I would otherwise modify the client app to use SO_BINDTODEVICE. However there is no such feature on Mac OS X.
So, moving on. This ipconfig alias address seems to almost work (or partially). Because outgoing packets sent to the new alias address ".111" will all appear on the ppp0 interface.
But rather than going from the alias address -> destination address, the packet appears there to be going from the local ppp0 assign "real address" (192.168.0.26) -> (192.168.0.111). So they go nowhere.

Perhaps some packet-rewriting rule is also needed? Any help would be great, thanks.
