I have the same problem. I know that I have good stuff and all the right answers to the questions. Also, ifconfig'ing eth0 now adds a route entry saying that the machine is not here but somewhere out there on the net. If I don't delete that improper route entry, I start getting socket distroy delayed messages. As for ifconfig reporting the wrong io address, when did this change? Until very recently, it was reporting everything correctly.
