how do i add a new loopback interface?  i have tried "ifconfig lo1
create", but I get a "ifconfig: SIOCIFCREATE: Invalid argument" error.

does mac os x allow for more than one loopback?


Do you really need an additional loopback _interface_, or just another loopback _address_?

If it's the latter, you can use 127.* as loopback, not just 127.0.0.1.

24 million IPs that go nowhere to choose from. :-)
