The problem I had is not that where it is binding to, but where it is 
telling workers to connect back to.

Head node launches a worker, telling it its own IP address[*].

Worker starts and connects to the IP address of the head node that it has 
been told, in order to start receiving work.

In the RENCI Engage case, the head node is telling the workers the wrong 
IP address, in as much as it is an IP address that is inaccessible from 
workers.
