 * All of which have differently named interfaces, right?  You didn't do
 * the old munchkin trick of naming all 3 interfaces idiom.com in your
 * DNS so that NFS gets royally confused about where to route the packets
 * back when the other end does a DNS lookup and gets a
 * differently-ordered list of addresses as a reply?  I'm sure you
 * didn't, but just checking..
 
 The interfaces all have different names.  I've tried mounting various
 interfaces by IP address.  I've mounted the T1 interface that leads 
 back to idiom.com.  I've mounted a loopback interface address.  The
 behaviour doesn't change much.  
 
 When mounting some interfaces, it takes a while before packets flow the
 wrong way.
 
 The interface I usually mount is a loopback interface.
