what is the IP number of tellabk and sunk (or if this is private, what is
the relationship between these two numbers is sunk IP < tellabk IP)? If I
remember correctly when I was playing with IP aliases (ie "multi-homed"), on
a new connection from a multi-homed FreeBSD machine, the multi-homed machine
used lowest IP number whether the lowest IP was the real (ifconfig without
an alias) interface address or not. I think this operation is incorrect.
UDP and TCP should alway orginate the real address not the lowest (possibly
and alias) address.
