I have Ubuntu 11.04 running inside a KVM. I am trying to add an additional IP address via adding the relevant details to /etc/network/interfaces then using /etc/init.d/networking restart.

However, when I try to do this, it will not bring up the new interface, and it will output the following:

Code:
 * Running /etc/init.d/networking restart is deprecated because it may not enable again some interfaces * Reconfiguring network interfaces...
ssh stop/waiting
ssh start/running, process 2076
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
Failed to bring up eth0:0.

Does anyone know why this is happening? Am I missing something on the proxmox side of things? Is it limited by proxmox? Is it something to do with Ubuntu?
