IP Aliases and IPChains

I have version 1.3.10 from Sept. 1, 2000 IPChains on this system. The
message I am getting is:

Warning: weird character in interface `eth0:1' (no aliases, :, !, or *)

Since I have two different networks being used I am not sure how to setup
ifconfig/ipchains to make this work.
