Hi! This morning, I found this in the daily periodic mail from a RELENG_7 machine:
+arp: unknown hardware address format (0x0000) +arp: unknown hardware address format (0x0000) +arp: unknown hardware address format (0x0000) +arp: unknown hardware address format (0x0000) +arp: unknown hardware address format (0x0000) I checked my yesterdays' logs and found: Feb 21 20:56:39 bellona dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST for 192.168.178.20 from 00:18:de:a4:b 8:6a via aue0: wrong network.

But why does FreeBSD complain about the bad hardware address? Any explanations?
