Hi John, looks like it's a normal behaviour with duplicate IP in the
network.
Is this problem reproduced with eth0 and eth0:2 IPs?
Could you try with another IP for eth0:1?
When the problem is happening, could you execute an "arp -a" from your
system and check if the MAC address is the same as eth0:1 MAC address
asigned?

Also a tcpdump from your system could be useful to know what is happening.

Regards,
Laura.
