ok i have a program called arpwatch on the network, monitors arp/ipmatching,
it sees that the public side of  the Snat box has its mac address switch
between the public and private interface.
here i tried to provide most the information that i can think of.

iptables v1.2.7a:

Chris,

  What does the physical interconnection of cables look like?
  Where is the arpwatch daemon?
  Do you have your public network and private network connected to
    the same hub/switch?

Could you give us a bit of ASCII art to show the configuration?

Judging from the symptoms, the only logical explanation I can imagine is
as follows.  You have your public and private networks connected to the
same medium (hub/switch).  Now, when a host on this network makes an ARP
request for 198.31.174.56, it might get two answers.

From any other box on the network try the following command:

# arping -I eth0 -c 3 198.31.174.56

See here for an explanation of ARP flux, if this is your problem:

  http://linux-ip.net/html/ether-arp.html#ether-arp-flux

Good luck,

-Martin

that does sound reasonable on what is happening.
thx for the help.
