So both interfaces are part of the same network, and the machines are not
connected to the Internet? (The host ns4.bbn.com is 192.1.122.13, for
example.)

None of your code gives the kernel any reason to prefer one interface over
the other. Why would an interface bound to 192.168.0.1 be better than one
for 192.168.0.2 if you're sending to 192.168.0.3?

Correct, you are binding to the adapter's address, not to the adapter. The
IP routing layer still determines which interface a packet is transmitted
on.

It depends how you have the IP routing layer configured. You can configure
it to select the adapter based on the source address if you want to.

then how do I configure this?
