  Yup, I am :-) I was just trying to save a little space for explanations.
Wrong idea, obviously!

  Yes, you are right, showing the total is better. Here is the complete
output from both machines:

  eth0 on both machines is used for an internal management network that
has no physical connections to the public network. eth1 and eth3 are
unused yet. The reason for this slightly stange setup is symmetry with
some other machines that only have two physical interfaces.

  *nod* Yes, I was aware of that. But this does not seem to be the problem
in this case. What do we look at next?
