I happened to come across this today and remembered the details.

In your specific Linux server(s), create the following file (and parent 
directories if needed)

/etc/WebObjects/Properties

BTW, this is referred to as the 'Machine Properties' file in ERXProperties. 
Every Wonder app will read this file when it exists on a host. it is useful for 
host-specific properties, which is exactly what IP addresses are.

In that Properties file you can define an array property containing the 
multiple IP addresses that your host has assigned to its network interfaces, 
for example on one of our servers, that Properties file has the following 
contents:

admin@silicon /etc/WebObjects: cat Properties 
# Used by Wonder's WOHostUtilities to solve wo app local ip discovery on 
multihomed linux machines
er.extensions.WOHostUtilities.localhostips=(192.168.3.168,192.168.1.168)

Hope that helps,

Kieran
