OK, lets get specific.  You can change the IPs to be safer, but I would 
like to know what routes you have.
netstat -rn

to show the routes.  If you know where each one is coming in, that would 
make it easy, but I am thinking this is not the case...  Once we know the 
route, maybe we can figure out where it is coming from.

What distribution? Sorry if I wasn't paying attention and you already said 
this, but I don't see it.

No, not the best way, but sometimes it takes a work around so you don't 
have to think about it for a bit, then you can come back with an open mind 
and a clear head.
