Subject:   strange ARP error message

Hello list,

There is a very strange arp error message in the messages log that says 
"skafi kernel: arplookup IP_A failed: host is not on local network". The 
strange thing is not the message it's self, but the fact that this 
machine (the machine "skafi") has only one interface, with a private IP, 
while the IP_A is a public IP address. I can't think why the ARP is 
involved here, if a packet has the destination IP_A it should just go to 
the router.

I have found that this error message appears in the messages when the 
httpd is starting. :-/

Any ideas?
