Has anyone found a straightforward way to force Ohai to use a specific 
interface’s IP address as the “main” ip address for the Chef node?  All our 
server’s are multi-homed (have 2-3 interfaces).  Chef is currently picking 
the IP of an interface that should not be considered the main interface for 
the node.  From what I found so far, Ohai references the order of the routes 
to determine which interface IP to select…?

Thanks,
George
