Maybe there are other machines in the LAN (it is a *big* LAN) trying to get their addresses using DHCP, and now -CURRENT shows a message whenever detects one of those packets. I will try to identify the senders (over 40!). Anyway, these "0.0.0.0" ARP messages are new in -CURRENT, and none of our machines running FreeBSD 4.x show them. -- ****** Jose M.
