bind interface to private IP

[Tobias Galitzien]

Can you ping your NT server from your Linux box?

As far as I can see this cannot work because your NT server is on 24.0.0.0/8
and your Linux is on 10.0.0.0/8 and these are different nets.

You will have to configure your eth1 to address 24.x.x.x and say "interfaces
= 24.0.0.0/8".
