 There seems to be some confusion about the problem I reported, I'll
 attempt to clarify.
 
 assume three machines of signifigace on the network:
 
 router: 205.240.209.209
 rainier (offender): 205.240.209.212
 any other machine :205.240.209.208/28 member

 Encap:
 Source address/netmask          Port  Destination address/netmask
 Port  Proto SA(Address/SPI/Proto)     
 
 So, clearly it would route through 205.240.209.209...
 
 <k2:~> traceroute -g 205.238.48.1 www.infoseek.com
 traceroute to guide-p.infoseek.com (204.162.96.21), 30 hops max, 48 byte
 packets
  1  rainier.lart.net (205.240.209.212)  3.453 ms !S  3.118 ms !S  2.844
 ms !S
 
 why is rainier.lart.net not minding its own business?
 
 <k2:~> ifconfig -a
 ...
 le0: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST>
