I keep getting this error message when I view 'dmesg' and I have no idea what it means:

arp: 192.168.1.100 is on rl1 but got reply from 00:08:c7:39:78:c7 on rl0

it's repeated quite a few times.. 192.168.1.100 is a win98 workstation...

Also, something I've noticed is when I'm transferring files (via ftp) internally I don't get more than 20KB/s throughput... this is from
my FreeBSD gateway to any of my internal boxes... I don't know if this is related to the above error or not...

The system is set up like this:

Gateway:

    AMD K6-2 550MHz
    128MB RAM
    OS: FreeBSD 4.1-Release
    Recompiled kernel with Firewall / Gateway options
    Cable Connection into rl0
    rl1 into 100BT hub (192.168.1.157)

Workstations:

    2 x win98 boxes off of the 100BT hub (192.168.1.100 & 192.168.1.101)
    1 x FreeBSD 4.1.1 workstation off of the 100BT hub (192.186.1.2)


What I find wierd is that normal packet forwarding isn't slowed down at all.. for example if one of my internal boxes is downloading from a site (ie ftp.freebsd.org) it goes at full speed
(100KB/s+) without slowdown.. however, transferring files from the GW to any internal box = 13-20KB/s max.. I've done traceroutes back and forth, and there's no wierd routes taken, they're all just one hop away with ping times of <10ms.. 

Any ideas out there that would cause any of these problems?!?!?!?

Thanks,

    RSN
