Weird network problem

[Edoardo Causarano]

Hi,

I have a little problem: a machine is configured with two ip addrs on the same eth if, the other being an alias. When connecting to the primary addr, even when pinging it, the response seems to come from the alias addr; this of course messes up the config of the firewall sitting between the server and clients. How is it possible? Why is the kernel answering on the alias? How can I force it to answer with the correct address?

TIA,
e
