We seem to be having a problem with random disconnects after
instituting carp on our gateway.  The problem is only happening with
our telnet[1] users connected to our legacy systems.

The problem only happens with remote users that come in via T1 and
don't go through the gateway.  The machines they are connecting to are
using 10.0.0.1 as it's gateway and seems to occassionaly choke when
receiving an icmp-redirect from 10.0.0.2 (or 10.0.0.3 depending on
which one is master) when it has queried 10.0.0.1.

It's really hard to duplicate and as such I don't have much debug
info. A user might be connected for hours or a few minutes.

Ideas on what I should be looking for?  Adding a static routes to the
legacy servers corrects this, but I don't really want to do that every
time a site complains about disconnects (if there is an easier way
that is).

This happens on every server that uses telnet[1] (about 4 or 5).

[1] Don't get me started on the whole telnet thing.
