Try installing the tunnel device with a VIP and doing a -noarp on that. I
believe there's documentation saying to do this... 2.2.x kernels really
added some odd arping.
Things work fine for me -- install the VIP aliases not on your loopback
device and not on your eth device, but on tunnel devices (and their aliases)
(even if you're not doing tunnelling -- you just need a different device...
tunl0 or ppp0... something besides lo or eth)
All the best --
Ted
