nod, saw it. i'm going to use horms' ultramonkey stuff eventually i think
so i chose to hold off on using any special config stuff just yet while i
test this stuff out.

so my VIP and RIPs have to be on the same network, in essense meaning i
need a public ip address for each real server? ick.
or if i used a different method like putting the VIP on an lo or eth
interface and hiding it, would that help? is there a way to arp hide
something like eth1:0, or do i have to hide the entire eth1 device? sigh.
there must be a way!
