Hmmm.  There are two hosts on this wire, one is the complaining host
and the other is the gateway.  Here are the interfaces for each:

[The complaining host]

root@time-> ifconfig -a
de0: flags=c843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,LINK2,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 204.216.27.226 netmask 0xfffffff0 broadcast 204.216.27.239
        ether 00:80:48:e8:01:4d 
lp0: flags=8810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
sl0: flags=c010<POINTOPOINT,LINK2,MULTICAST> mtu 552
lo0: flags=8009<UP,LOOPBACK,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 

[And now the gateway, the only other host on the wire]

root@whisker-> ifconfig -a
ed0: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 204.216.27.228 netmask 0xfffffff0 broadcast 204.216.27.239
        ether 00:00:c0:13:92:72 
lp0: flags=8810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
lo0: flags=8009<UP,LOOPBACK,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 
ppp0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
sl0: flags=9011<UP,POINTOPOINT,LINK0,MULTICAST> mtu 552
        inet 204.216.27.194 --> 204.216.27.193 netmask 0xfffffff0 
tun0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

Given that this is a 16 host subnet, it stands to reason that the
netmask on de0/ed0 is correct.  The sl0 line shouldn't matter (it goes
to freefall, which also has correct netmasks for everything, just
BTW).

So now where's my problem? :-)
