We might actually be able to help with this at MIT, where steffani is
already hosted.  MIT controls 18.0.0.0/8 and, while the lab where
steffani is hosted doesn't usually use net 18 address space, we do have
some available.  I'd have to double check with the network admin, but it
should be trivial to allocate an address for this purpose.  Would it
work to simply bring up a separate interface on steffani?

noah
