[HECnet] Alpha emulation?

NCP>tell 2.17 show exec
Executor node = 2.16 (SKETTI)

  Oppss.   I take it all back about it being OK.   You're right - that is a
problem.   This is new, though - it wasn't doing this before.

  That's really odd, though - if I log into the host Linux system and do
ifconfig, I see -

	eth0           Link encap:Ethernet   HWaddr aa:00:04:00:10:08
	                  inet addr:10.1.1.25   Bcast:10.1.1.255   Mask:255.255.255.0

Note that eth0 and eth1 DON'T have the same MACs, and I believe they're the
correct MACs for 2.16 (eth0) and 2.17 (eth1) respectively.

  Hmmm.... Maybe I should uninstall DECnet/Linux from the host and try
again...
