Why a double entry for eth1?? Just being pre-programmed to accept what's expected to be used with it. The usual 192.168.x.y private address range in use on your LAN, and the 169.254.x.y random link local addresses that get used by default when a fixed IP isn't set and a DHCP server can't be found (a very basic peer to peer network with no server, or automatically getting an IP address when the machine is standalone). -- (Currently running FC4, occasionally trying FC5.) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
