If you have the common situation where your host has multiple

(broadcast domain), then you will *not* see these messages.

You *do* see them if both the IOC and the CA client are running on the
same machine - my Linux Laptop has both a wireless and a wired network
interface, and when both are active I have to set EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST to
one network address and turn off AUTO_ADDR_LIST to stop the errors.
This situation is something which might be fixable inside CA - could you
check if the duplicate addresses are both interfaces on this machine and
silently ignore duplication?
