Hi there,
Since installing 2.1.5 and compiling a streamlined kernel, I'm
repeatedly plagued with the message:
/kernel: arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo for 127.0.0.1
Now named is running but I can't query it with nslookup -- I don't
really know how to interpret the results of a netstat -nr but
ifconfig -a reports that there is a loopback interface. I'm pretty
confused by all this! There should'nt be any other machines sending
arp requests (there's no other machines on this ethernet segment --
it just goes to the router) -- this problem only started with my
system rebuilt. Is there something weird in the new (2.1.5 stable) named
binary?
It was suggested to me that I:
>... find the broken machine that's broadcasting ARP requests for the
>loopback address, and turn it off.
I'm not clear on how to track that down -- again, this is the only
machine on this ehternet segment. Thanks for any help you can offer!
