[Linux-cluster] Two clusters in the network with same "name" in cluster.conf

[Digimer]

I'll admit to having trouble following you... So let's get some basics;

* What is the cluster.conf of either cluster?
* What exact IPs does the hostnames, as set in the cluster.conf, resolve to?
* What is the exact IP of eth0 and eth1 on each node, inc. netmask?

As a point of curiosity; why do you need the cluster names to be identical?
