Hi, I am seeing a lot of these messages in my /var/log/messages directory and cannot understand why: arplookup 192.168.0.12 failed: could not allocate llinfo arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo for 192.168.0.12rt There were more of these messages for two other IPs (one external), but this is the only one with 'rt' trailed at the end of the IP. Whats this for? Its been happenning since yesterday and it seems that the server is attempting this every 2-3 seconds, which I think is the cause for a sluggish mailserver (this litterally happened over night!). Also, would this be linked to another incident which meant that all mail was being dumped in queue (im running qmail MTA)? Following a restart of the mail server, we experienced routing problems such that we were not able to access the server from the office LAN but could be accessed by another machine on its LAN; zebrad and ospfd did not start at restart. Why was this? This morning, all seems to be fine accept a couple of the following messages from last night: Sep 29 16:08:26 freebsd10 /kernel: arplookup 217.73.66.16 failed: host is not on local network Sep 29 17:40:50 freebsd10 /kernel: arplookup 217.73.66.16 failed: host is not on local network Sep 29 23:46:38 freebsd10 /kernel: arplookup 217.73.66.16 failed: host is not on local network Forgive me for being such a novice...but I am :) Thanks Khaled
