I have two external boxes. one freebsd and one windows xp. I use my ISP's gateway and I changed the address on my windows xp box to the xxx.xxx.xxx.254(isp gateway) address and got a message on my freebsd box saying 'ethernet address of xxx.xxx.xxx.254 changed from :xx:xx:xx:xx(mac address of the gateway) changed to xx:xx:xx:xx(mac address of the windows xp box). Don't ask me why i did this :-/. So anyway i flushed the arp table on that box 'arp -d -a' and now i reboot and i can't send/recv traffic and can't ping the isp gateway. any help would be great. kr0nograffik@sasktel.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
