Jim, I've tried that on several occasions and not seen any traffic go on eth1 once the plug was pulled. Even attempting to ping google.com didn't show any traffic. That aside, I've been trying other things, and I may have gotten it working, though I'm not sure why, which isn't ideal. The following two changes were precipitous in making my terminals work again: switching from the nfs-kernel-server package to the nfs-user-server package and changing the host line in /etc/nsswitch.conf to read host files dns rather than the other way around. We'll see if it stays working, but I have my fingers crossed. And I'll be attempting to replicate this success on the other two machines.
