Hi all,

recently i upgraded to 2.2.5 stable...
i'm currently running 2.2.5-stable. (built 29.01.1998)
Yesterday i tried to add a new alias to my ethernetcard
(3com 3c590 PCI).

ifconfig vx0 alias X.X.X.X netmask 0xffffffff 
(virt webserver)

if you do a ifconfig -a the entry is visible, but if you try to do
a ping to this address, nothing happens.

The errormessage shows:

arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo for X.X.X.X

what does this mean ?

Regards
 Robert
