	I'm trying (so far without success :-)) to get V 5 netflow data in to
a rc.63 clients ra with this (by the way .threads is on by default in the 
clients, is it supposed to be?):

"ra3[24189]: 07-11-16 12:39:37 Binding AF_ANY:1025 Expecting Netflow records"

is a bit worrying because there are something like 5 interfaces on this machine
and the correct one is eth4 for the netflow data but the source IP seems to 
have been lost somewhere. Netflow data is appearing on the eth4 interface:
