I see the same error message since Dec 29 04:46:02 about an IP that belongs to another of my servers, and which is not at all in the configuration. Nor was the ifconfig changed at that time. Neither did I rebuild the kernel or world at that time. The machine was not rebooted at that time. So what?? However, to be completely honest, the IP has a PTR that is identical with the PTR of one of the alias IPs on the machine. This did not change either on Dec. 29. Diagram A 100.100.100.1 IN PTR papa.angry.com 100.100.100.2 (alias) IN PTR host.domain.com 100.100.100.3 (alias) IN PTR mama.angry.net B 200.200.200.1 IN PTR host.domain.com Now host A complains that the IP of host B is not on the local network.
