It was a long time since I did this, but I think you can use the device name followed by a colon and a number, eg. "eth0:0" for the first address, "eth0:1" for the second and so on. I'm not sure, though.

in RedHat you can do this with the netconfig script. It basically sets up /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:1,2,3, etc.
I respectfully decline the invitation to join your delusion.

GUI Tools
I used the GUI to do this
in gnome -> System Tools -> Network Device Control
Then just add an additional ethernet device, choose same card new IP address and activate it.
No command lines here.
