Hi,

I have a FreeBSD 3.4 server running apache which I am trying to
loadbalance.

I have hit a problem with ARP.

My loadbalancer is sending an arp request to the bsd box which is not
responding.  This is being send inside an IEE 802.1q vlan packet.

This includes an extra 4 bytes of data which offset's the arp flags
further into the packet.

If I turn off the vlan the loadbalancer produces normal Ethernet II arp
requests and the BSD web server responds without a problem.

Can anyone explain why an 802.1q ARP request is rejected by the BSD box???

Thanks for your time.

Tom Brown
