It's definately not tied to uname, otherwise it'd change every time I 
built a new kernel. Basing it on IP address would be extremely foolish, 
since most people use one of 3 ranges for their internal network with 
servers generally being .1-10 or .250-254, and for external connections 
too many people are on dynamic IPs.

It is appears to be tied to the adapter address of eth0, I just don't 
know if the adapter addresses of other interfaces make a difference.
