Could you please elaborate on that? I would be most interested in this
series of ifconfig commands. See what I would do in FreeBSD

ifconfig bge0 inet 10.14.134.6 netmask 255.255.254.0
ifconfig bge0 inet 10.14.140.6 netmask 255.255.254.0 alias
(disconnect from 10.14.134.6, connect to 10.14.140.6)
ifconfig bge0 inet 10.14.134.6 delete

or just run /etc/netstart after altering your rc.conf file

This will most likely interrupt IP connectivity. My recipe does not.
Besides, /etc/netstart will try to "start" those network related
scripts in /etc/rc.d while you actually need to "restart" them.

what are you talking about???? solaris has no /etc/rc.d or /etc/netstart
!!!

while not for everthing, the netstart seems to work ok for some of my
machines. they're all version 4 and 6 though and just web and mailservers.
