Which version of the system are you using? The way you did an ifconfig
in rc.conf changed between 2.2.8 and 3.2-stable.

I don't think it should be since you want it to look at 10.0.0.0-255. I
was surprised to see ed1 instead of ed0.  My ifconfig -a is

fxp0: flags=8847<UP,BROADCAST,DEBUG,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 169.254.0.3 netmask 0xffff0000 broadcast 169.254.255.255
        ether 00:90:27:42:f3:17
        media: 100baseTX status: active
        supported media: autoselect 100baseTX <full-duplex> 100baseTX
10baseT/UT
P <full-duplex> 10baseT/UTP
lp0: flags=8810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
tun0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
sl0: flags=c010<POINTOPOINT,LINK2,MULTICAST> mtu 552
ppp0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000

I would change your host to localhost.chanl1.com localhost and add the
other two machines to your host table. Each IP address should only be in
there one time.
