If you run "netstat -n" do you see the TCP connections with the old or
new local IP address?  I suspect that the IP address is still
configured on eth0 and the kernel is still processing the connections
(as long as the client routes the packets to the server) and that if
you unconfigure the IP ("ifconfig eth0 inet 0.0.0.0") it will stop
working.

Either way, having a TCP connection behave this way is a bug/feature of
the OS...
