Crist - Yes, there are definitely live pingable addresses there. In actuality, the IP addresses that I can't reach are all on the same machine - multiple IP's bound to the same NIC - it is a Sun E250 server. I am able to ARP for the MAC address and it returns correctly. -Scott -----Original Message----- From: Crist J .

Do you know for sure that there is a live, pingable host living at those addresses? I mean, you have Armstrong coax cable, right? Aren't those where other user's machines _might_ be? -- Crist J.
