How to add IP alias in Debian Linux to last after reboot

To add and ip alias in Debian to survive a reboot, edit the file "/etc/network/interfaces" and create a subinterface for ethX and set it's ip address:

Code:

iface eth3:0 inet static
        address 10.0.0.23
        netmask 255.255.255.240
        network 10.0.0.16
        broadcast 10.0.0.31

As soon as the device is rebooted or the network service restarted, this change will take effect. To add the alias immediately without restart, you can use ip command:

Code:

user~ sudo ip a add 10.1.1.23/28 dev eth3:0

This is it.

I'm using dyndns.org to maintain my domain, and I use inadyn to keep my ip updated at that site (in case my link fails and my ip gets changed.)
I need to execute this at the command line after every reboot: inadyn -u <username> -p <password> -a ashesh.homeip.net
Given that I'm using FC 6, is there some place I can add this line so that it is executed automatically during bootup?
I'll really appreciate your help guys.
Thanks in advance,

How about using cron @reboot ? It's a cross platform workaround.

Code:

@reboot /path/to/script

Now that you have the port number, you can simply go to your router and forward that port completely and then turn on your remote desktop feature it will work out of your network, since you want to know your IP address or have a dynamic DNS service like I use. To enable Remote Desktop in Windows XP and Windows 2003 go to the Start menu, locate the My Computer icon and right click on it.
