Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG 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): ---- netstat -nr ---- Routing tables Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire default 24.93.84.1 UGSc 9 42 ed1 24.93.84/24 link#2 UC 0 0 ed1 24.93.84.1 8:0:3e:4:30:5f UHLW 10 0 ed1 1011 24.93.84.28 127.0.0.1 UGHS 0 3 ed1 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 1 2457 lo0 192.168.5 link#1 UC 0 0 de0 192.168.5.1 0:80:c8:46:79:67 UHLW 0 555 lo0 192.168.5.255 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb 3 77 de0 AppleTalk: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire 0 0.0 U 0 13 lo0 => 0-32767 65280.212 U 0 0 de0 32768-49151 65280.212 U 0 0 de0 49152-57343 65280.212 U 0 0 de0 57344-61439 65280.212 U 0 0 de0 61440-63487 65280.212 U 0 0 de0 63488-64511 65280.212 U 0 0 de0 64512-65023 65280.212 U 0 0 de0 65024-65279 65280.212 U 0 0 de0 65280-65407 65280.212 U 1 9 de0 65280.212 0.0 UH 1 4 de0 65408-65471 65280.212 U 0 0 de0 65472-65503 65280.212 U 0 0 de0 65504-65519 65280.212 U 0 0 de0 65520-65527 65280.212 U 0 0 de0 65528-65531 65280.212 U 0 0 de0 65532-65533 65280.212 U 0 0 de0 65534 65280.212 U 0 0 de0 ---- 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.
