Multiple IPs in Debian Sarge

I rebooted & it picked up my new IP from DHCP and didn't pick up my old IP.

So of course all my sites are down, and I can't figure out how to get them back up.

Did all the ifconfig/route magic & here's what they look like:

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr FE:FD:40:3E:BE:9A
          inet addr:64.62.190.154  Bcast:64.62.190.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:384 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:51 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:29109 (28.4 KiB)  TX bytes:5758 (5.6 KiB)
          Interrupt:5

eth0:1    Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr FE:FD:40:3E:BE:9A
          inet addr:65.19.178.162  Bcast:65.255.255.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          Interrupt:5
64.62.190.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth0
65.19.178.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth0
default         gateway-he-li5\. 0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0
default         gateway-he-li3\. 0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0

It's kind of urgent, so I'd be very grateful if anyone has any guesses… (and Bill Clinton, I saw an old post and I don't care that I just posted my IPs, but thanks anyway)

Got it. It was a "bug" (limitation) in Debian/ifconfig.

Maybe I'll post more details later, but for now I'm happy its working.
