Hi Michael,

My network topology skills are limited... does this mean the following:

- my default gateway is on a 255.255.255.240 subnet
- so is my devices real address
- there is another device listed there (de0), no problems (internal)

So, if I change the aliased devices to 0xffffff0 (255.255.255.240), they
will be a-ok and not produce those message? I believe I had it set like
that and the devices wouldn't initiate?

Many thanks in advance,

phillip.
