I have not seen this (yet) but will simply move my LAN IP way up the scale
and see it if works.  I may have to rework some scripts for stuff...
Wait...  Ah!  I just disabled the default gateway on the .4 IP and it sent
mail out my .56 IP!!!!  KOOL!  More testing will be required of course...
My .4 IP doesn't NEED to have Internet access anyway.

Cause it came that way 8-)

Before I was 'ordered' to remove the Linux systems, I had seperate
networks to do backups using the second interface on all 4 servers.
Since then I have had nothing but trouble.

Looks like it might be 'fixed' - Time will tell!
