Thanks for clearing that up, 
I remember reading an article a while back about sending frequent
spoofed ARP packets to receive packets but have been unable to locate
the article. You can specify your own Mac address on some network
cards in windows now, if this was set wouldn't this prevent proper
communications between hosts?
Such as A sending a SYN packet
B replying with SYN/ACK
And C (change MAC) replying with FIN
Will this cause the connection to close preventing connectivity?

Thanks

Stu

  A switch should *always* be learning.  A destination MAC 
address should always fall into one of two categories:

1.  I have it in my switch table (NOT *ARP*, per se), because
I saw traffic from it on interface X within the last N time-units.

2.  It's not in my tables -- send this packet to every port and
assume we'll see a packet from it soon so it will get added to
my switch table.

  Switch table entries could get created when ARP response packets
are seen -- or ARP requests, or DHCP broadcasts, or ....
