I have a block public ip addresses at X.Y.Z.128/28. My FreeBSD 4.3-BETA system has assigned IP address X.Y.Z.140 netmask 255.255.255.240, broadcast X.Y.Z.143. I don't use routed. I have one static host route to a particular host. Here's the problem when somebody tries to access me from the outside with IP A.B.C.D I'm getting messages: /kernel: arplookup A.B.C.D failed: host is not on local network /kernel: arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo A.B.C.Drt I arplookup is right! The IP address is not on the local network. Why is arplookup displaying this? What is wrong? I am also not able to slogin to this public address.
