Multiple sites and IP address

We are trying to use multiple site with multiple IP address on one server.

We have assigned IP address 10.0.2.30, 10.0.2.31, 10.0.2.32 to the network card, but IP 10.0.2.32 is not showing up in IIS to assign to one of the web sites.

We are using an HP DL360 G5 with dual nics and running IIS 6 on W2K3.
 
I understand what you are trying to do, I'm not sure of why one of your IP addresses is not showing up in IIS to be assigned to a web-site.
I am curious about your set-up and wanted to ask if you considered using Host Headers as it would enable you to host multiple web-sites using a single IP. This is mainly done with webservers on the Internet that have only one public IP address available. This works for private addressing as well, the benefit being that you save addresses on the subnet.

Anyway, just wanted to know if considered the option.
 
I discovered the problem. And it is now corrected.

It seems that we had a rouge IP address on the network and since we do almost everything over Remote desktop we were not getting a pop up saying that you have a conflicting IP address. So as soon as we removed the rouge IP address and re-assigned the IP address it showed up in IIS.
