Hmm, as far as the problem above I realized I've not tried the
above. Can you do a ifconfig, then send a copy of your routing
table (netstat -nr) and post it?
Thinking of it what would be the purpose of talking between VIP's?
I've only used virutual IPs for web hosting.
Chasing through some RFC's I can see that they say fully independant
in discussing VIP, and I'm out of time but I'll try to find the
correct one later.
Either way you really should fall back on using eth0:1 etc in naming
each VIP.
