Hello..

I've got a problem with a FreeBSD 3.3 system that I just installed. The
system has two network interfaces, de0 and ed1. The ed1 interface is
configured through DHCP (connected to a cable modem). The de0 interface is
statically configured as 192.168.5.1 (my private network). The box runs
several proxies as well as mail and a few other things (samba, netatalk).

The problem I'm having is that I cannot connect to anything on the ed1
interface from within the box itself. I get the following error from the
kernel on my console:

---- console message ----

arplookup 127.0.0.1 failed: could not allocate llinfo
arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo for 127.0.0.1rt

----

I get this message everytime I try to connect to anything on the ed1
interface's address from the system in question. In other words, if I
type:

% telnet 24.93.84.28

..I get the above two lines on my console.

Everything is working fine from outside of the box. The ed1 interface
seems to be working fine, as all services are available to that side of
the network. I can connect to my 127.0.0.1 interface as well as my
192.168.5.1 interface from inside the box without difficulty.

Here is output from my routing table (netstat -nr):

If anyone has any advice I'd really appreciate it. The problem isn't a
show-stopper and the system is functioning fine otherwise. I do find it a
bit disconcerting though and would really like to get to the bottom of it.

Thanks in advance,
Michael
