I don't have your dual redundant server system but from what I can
imagine both servers have to have different ip's on eth0 so one must
be 192.168.0.254 and the other (?) They both hand out ip's
(alternating) so if one goes down the other picks up the slack.
However, the problem I'm having implementing this is that I can't seem
to figure out how to netstat the other server without actually going
there with ssh. This long line in my code

netstat -t -e|grep x11|sed -e 's/:/ /g'|awk '{print $9,$6}'|grep -v
root|grep -v $LOGNAME|grep -v gdm|sort|uniq

is used to get usernames and hostnames of the clients. I looked
briefly at man netstat but can't seem to figure out if it's even
possible to netstat your other server. If you could figure this out I
think I could code it. Obviously you would have to test it.
