I am getting these error messages and it seems that it the connection to
the ip-number (usually a DOS micro with NCSA Telnet) is lost from our
FreeBSD 2.1.5 server.

1. I assume the error is in network gateway unit at 00:00:0c:15:e7:0d
2. Can I somehow solve the problem in the FreeBSD box by adding some
   routing info or something.
3. Can I dissable this overwriting somehow? How?

This problem and error message appears only in the FreeBSD nodes, not in
Solaris, Linux, HP/UX etc. as far as I know.

One network guru here is explaining the gateway unit is sometimes
answering too fast to the caller or something, faster than the FreeBSD
node.
