Another critical piece of information that I forgot to mention was that I am a
DHCP client.

The addresses that get handed out are static, but if I disable the DHCP client
and use just the address, I can't ping domain names (don't bother helping me
with the DNS, I've got to read up first.) ;)

Here's ifconfig -a and dhclient.leases:

ed0: flags=c843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,LINK2,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 172.17.25.238 netmask 0xfffff000 broadcast 172.17.31.255
        ether 00:40:95:76:9d:ef
lp0: flags=8810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
tun0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
sl0: flags=c010<POINTOPOINT,LINK2,MULTICAST> mtu 552
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000

lease {
  interface "ed0";
  fixed-address 172.17.25.238;
  medium "link2";
  option subnet-mask 255.255.240.0;

  rebind 3 1998/11/11 19:18:09;
  expire 4 1998/11/12 04:18:09;
}
lease {
  interface "ed0";
  fixed-address 172.17.25.238;
  medium "link2";

  rebind 3 1998/11/11 23:40:11;
  expire 4 1998/11/12 08:40:11;
}
