Hi, I believe that if you set the serverhladdress, that address will be used (it's not in the docs). Of course, if there is only one route to a client, via only one interface, that source ip-address will be used.
as to binding the TSM server to a specific address, I've asked the question before, from a security perspective, but apparently nobody sees the use of being able to specify an IP address for the server to restrict itself to.
