I have a moderately-sized network that I am trying to run, with about 70 or so machines on it. The DHCP server (running FreeBSD 6.2, IPv4 address: 10.11.12.254, Subnet is 10.11.12.0/24) acts as a gateway server as well, and has ipnat running for traffic routing. So far, I have had no problems with ANY of the machines on this network connecting, save one--my File server (running FreeBSD 6.2 as well, IPv4 address: 10.11.12.253). For some reason, whenever I try to establish any connection to ANY network address (on any protocol), it will only connect to one address: 10.11.12.252 (and won't connect to anything when that machine is off). Here is a ping listing: #ping 10.11.12.254 PING 10.11.12.254 (10.11.12.254): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 10.11.12.252: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.852 ms ...and it continues precisely in that manner until I stop it. I have tried re-installing the OS on the file server, but with no change in results. I have removed the machine at 10.11.12.252 with the only change being that the file-server can obtain NO connection to ANY IP address. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Michael
