Great document John! Thanks. It clears up a few mysteries and opens
some options including the mii tool that I wasn't aware of. I'm using
SuSE on our servers and it works great. What was the inadvertent
routing issue? Was it a default route or something being done by the
network init script? What capture options / filters did you set in
ethereal? Are you set up round-robin or tlb or alb?

Thanks again!
