Hello,

This afternoon I decided to setup a web100 based kernel and install the ndt
tools to help us work with users accessing our network from afar. I'd wanted
to set up fakewww to bind to an IP alias, but it did not seem to have that
ability in ndt-3.6.2b, so I added it. I'm not sure where/who I can submit
patches to, or if anyone would desire this ability. It appears that perhaps
this feature was going to be added eventually, as there is the 'srcname'
check (which is ignored) in the code already.

Changes that are not related to getting in a separate IP address to bind to
are to make it fail in a clean way, i.e. if you specify an address that is
not bound to any ethernet interface on the host.

Feel free to ignore, or criticize:
