Dear Michael, [kjkoster@saffron ~]$ ifconfig bge0 bge0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500 options=8009b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,LINKSTATE> ether 00:e0:81:32:ed:b4 inet 91.196.169.165 netmask 0xfffffff8 broadcast 91.196.169.167 inet 91.196.169.166 netmask 0xffffffff broadcast 91.196.169.166 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex,flowcontrol,rxpause,txpause>) status: active [kjkoster@saffron ~]$ fgrep bge0 /etc/rc.conf ifconfig_bge0="inet 91.196.169.165 netmask 255.255.255.248" ifconfig_bge0_alias0="91.196.169.166 netmask 255.255.255.255"
That broadcast address and netmask look wrong for sure. Should I just change that to 255.255.255.248 as well?
