jeff,

Ok, the next thing to do is use tcpdump to watch the traffic that is
trying to go out through that interface.

if the external interfaced is eth1, then try this:

   tcpdump -i eth1

Then sit back and watch, to see what traffic is trying to use the
interace.

That is, assuming you've pulled the plug.

Jim.
