Perhaps we are straying from the main topic here a little, so I will
keep it brief. Thanks for your feedback and we'll see how things work
tomorrow when we move the server's hostname to match the Javamonitor
host name and the application's WOHost.

Possible, its been a long time since I've heard NICs referred to as an
adaptor. But possible. I'd find it odd that WO would know anything
about the physical hardware layer and whether you were running
ethernet, ATM, PPP or any other type of interface.
Apache has nothing to do with it. And you only should have only one
ethernet-socket per network, so only one adaptor talks with the web-
servers.
Assuming all your web servers are on the same network. In our case
they are, but can't see why that necessarily is so.
For that matter I don't even understand why it matters which
interface those requests come in on, as long as they hit the
application on the right port.
Every port is bound to exactly one interface. You can not listen on
port 80 on ALL interfaces. You can only listen to 10.0.0.2:80 or/and
11.1.2.99:80
Maybe here is your misunderstanding of how ethernet and ports work.
Your statement is not true. Well, on Unix at least, I don't know about
Windows. Under Unix an IP socket listener is not always associated
with a specific IP address or network interface. Solaris and FreeBSD
have jails/zones which allow you to do that, but certainly that is not
the default behaviour.
