[wellylug] Sending traffic to a virtual interface

How do you make an application use a particular interface to connect to 
a particular IP address?

I have a machine with interfaces eth0, eth0:0, eth0:1, etc. I want 
application A to use interface eth0:0 and not eth0 to communicate with 
IP address xx.yy.zz.ww. There's no way to configure the application 
itself to use a particular interface. Just the IP address.

I've a feeling that the answer is obvious....

Cheers,

Cliff
