Honeyd won't run if given NIC w/o an IP address #14

You get:

honeyd: interface_new: bad interface configuration: eth0 is not IP

And then honeyd quits.

This is a recoverable error so long as there are other valid interfaces given. You could just easily ignore this input, produce a warning, and move on. Might need to disable any nodes configured to use the interface though.
