Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, Peter Wemm had

I would be more inclined to check pmap_set() or get_myaddress(). (I think
you did frob get_myaddress().) It would also help if we knew if these people
are doing funky things with virtual interfaces or multihomed hosts. (This
information is important people! When you describe a problem, you should
go into _excrutiating_ detail. What may seem unimportant to you may speak
volumes to us.)

It means Luser Attitude Readjustment Tool, and refers to any sort of
mechanism or object used to inflict serious and usually lethal injuries
on those lusers that distinguish themselves in the eyes of their sysadmins.
Mine gets 20 miles to the gallon.
