On the primary ip (192.168.1.19) apache. Mysql, and ssh listen. The second
ip addy is just so that this server can talk to that subnet. The 192 network
does not have any access to the 10 network, but I would like to have this
server poll various hardware in the 10 network via snmp, that's all

So if I were to ping a host on the 10 network it will go out via the 10 nic
card, and if I were to ping a host on the 192 network it goes out on the 192
nic.


Hope I am making myself clear here.
