thanks for the feedback. I don't think this is the source of the problem. I have checked the loop back interface and it seems to be working correctly. I have not tracked the exact source down yet, but I am leaning towards a flaky Adaptec 2940 scsi interface at this point. I had an external scsi cdrom that was not detected correctly due to various termination issues. Once that was resolved, the error messages stopped, but I can't be sure that is the sole cause. I'm still working away at it. -----Original Message----- From: Lionel Cons [mailto:lionel.cons@xxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, January 22, 2001 1:00 AM To: kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: neighbor table overflow ?

We've seen it here too and, in our case, it was caused by a bogus loopback configuration, like what is described at http://www.debian.org/Lists-Archives/debian-user-0006/msg00172.html ________________________________________________________ Lionel Cons http://home.cern.ch/~cons CERN http://www.cern.ch If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried. _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
