The same command on three different BSDi boxes (with the appropriate interface designation :)) results in them losing the MAC address of the router after about 5 to 20 minutes. Netstat -ran shows the Gateway to the router IP as the correct MAC address at first then changes to link#1. Any suggestions on how to keep the BSDi boxes in contact with the outside world? -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jack O'Neill Finger jacko@diamond.xtalwind.net or jack@xtalwind.net http://www.xtalwind.net/~jacko/pubpgp.html #include <std_disclaimers.h> for my PGP key.
