Done a bit of searching round and looks like the way below is how it is
done on Debian in
/etc/network/interfaces

iface eth0 inet static
    address x.x.x.x
    network x.x.x.x
    netmask x.x.x.x
    broadcast x.x.x.x
    gateway x.x.x.x

iface eth0:0 inet static
    address x.x.x.x
    network x.x.x.x
    netmask x.x.x.x
    broadcast x.x.x.x
    gateway x.x.x.x

this file is read by ifup/ifdown which are called in the init.d scripts
at start up.

thanks for all the pointers.

Steve.
