I have to move our DNS server to our VMware environment. With that comes a new IP address (10.10.102.x). The current address is in the 192.168.10.x. range. Is there a way to bind an alias to my NIC that has a different IP range? I tried it and it didnt work but if i used two IPs in the same subnet range it works. What are my options?

I don't want to go around and modify all my clients to use the new IP. I have many other things running like Nagios and Puppet. Unfortunately this is going to suck and I probably dont have any other options. ANy ideas?

can't you tell VMware to bridge the fake NIC to the real NIC, instead of running NAT or whatever..?

You could set up a DNS relay from 192.168.10.x to 10.10.102.x... some router somewhere in your network might be capable of it.
