MAC/machine-name mismatch

[Ray Phillips]

This seems crazy, but I thought I'd report an instance when a 
MAC/machine-name mismatch appeared in the log file of the primary in 
our failover pair.  Both primary and secondary were running version 
3.1.0rc1 at the time (I upgraded them to rc2 over the weekend).

TruemanLT-PC's MAC is 00:00:39:2f:b9:3f, not 00:19:d1:82:7a:17.

These are the only entries in both log files at the time Jul  6 18:32:5x

This is a normal entry for the  machine named TruemanLT-PC:

TruemanLT-PC's owner isn't capable of spoofing a MAC address.
