Here was the original question: I have a 4.3 box that has two interfeaces, qe0 and ne0 (it is a 5500). Now this machine has not been touched in years and I didn't set it up. My network guy set up a router to broadcast 209.69.218.127/25 netmask 255.255.255.128 and for whatever reason, the ultrix box decided (as seen by the network guy's router) to broadcast itself as the entire class c of 209.69.218.0/24, which is, of course, completely wrong. it shouldn't be broadcasting anything to do with this address. How can I track down what is going on? I've done netstat's but I'm not certin in /etc what to look for for this promiscuous routing. Yiorgos Adamopoulos <adamo@dblab.ece.ntua.gr> Dave DeChellis <daved@crl.dec.com> Who suggested I look at gated and routed. I still don't know why the ultrix box picked up the route, but it could be because it was a CIDR route, which the ultrix box might not be able to handle. The Ultrix box was running routed, but the ip space was specified in the /etc/rc.local and had nothing to do with the one that the box picked up. So, nothing really solved the problem except shutting off routed thanks beckers Becki Kain beckers@furph.com -- furph, Inc.
