	Make the netmasks on all of your aliases 255.255.255.255. This is
a quirk of Berkeley-based routing, but once configured it will let the
system do the right thing. Also, make sure your loopback device is
configured properly. There was a bogon in the 3.3 install that prevented
this from happening.

Good luck,

Doug
