I first noticed the problem when the machine stopped sending local mail;
a typical entry:
Aug 19 10:08:30 online sm-msp-queue[68533]: o7IKAhth008649:
[email protected], ctladdr=timothyk (1001/1001), delay=17:57:47,
xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=3360050, relay=[127.0.0.1],
dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Can't assign requested address
Non-local mail still works:
Aug 19 10:14:11 online sm-mta[68582]: o7JEEB8I068582:
from=<[email protected]>, size=593, class=0, nrcpts=1,
msgid=<[email protected]>, proto=ESMTP, daemon=IPv4,
relay=mail-xxx.njit.edu [128.235.251.157]
Aug 19 10:14:11 online sm-mta[68584]: o7JEEB8I068582:
to=<[email protected]>, delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00,
mailer=local, pri=30840, relay=local, dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent
When I ping localhost:
# ping localhost
PING localhost (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Can't assign requested address
ping: sendto: Can't assign requested address
ping: sendto: Can't assign requested address
# uname -a
FreeBSD xxx.njit.edu 7.3-STABLE FreeBSD 7.3-STABLE #0: Tue Mar 30

/etc/hosts, /etc/hosts.conf, /etc/resolv.conf all look fine. I diffed
them with another working 7.3-STABLE machine I have.
I have built world and kernel to yesterday's 7.3-STABLE, but I haven't
rebooted the machine. I'm thinking that if this is a hardware problem,
once it goes down for a reboot, it may not come back up.
I'm eagerly open to suggestions.
