Response to a) shows:
# ifconfig -a | grep 172
inet 172.16.100.202 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 172.16.100.255
all of which is correct.
Response to b) is nothing:
# netstat -an | grep 514
#=20
I've turned off regular syslog on this box..=20

a) ifconfig -a |grep 172
this shows you have that ip address on that machine?
b) netstat -an |grep 514
is there something already listening on 514 tcp?
