There's definitely no other machine on my network with the same IP address. I thought that the 192.168.1.* were reserved for internal networks, so is it possible for some machine outside with the same IP to be causing my troubles?
Here's a little sketch of my network:
________
|FreeBSD|------Nic 1---> DSL --> Internet
| | __________
_________------Nic 2 --->| HUB |
__________
^ ^
________ | |
|FreeBSD|------------------ |
|________| |
(problem machine) |
|
_________ |
|Win 95 |-------------------
_________
There's another Windows machine going into the hub.
In all I've got four machines, with the following IP addresses:
192.168.1.1
192.168.1.2
192.168.1.3
192.168.1.4 (the problem machine)
