* What kind of hub is this?

It's a nonaccredited 5-port 10Bast-T hub which we used to connect
outside world via another interface (my de0 and his ed0). And when
we're trying to use this hub for internal connection only via both of
our newly bought dfe530s, we're in trouble.

* Are you using any unusual networking tricks, like network address 
* translation or firewalling or IP aliasing? People tend to forget to 
* mention things like that. There are some things I'm curious about:

No, that's why I typed a `ipfw list' in the very first mail which indicates
I have no firewall configuration in my kernel at all.

* - What does netstat -in show? Are there any input errors? Are there
*   any input packets? (If the input packet counter keeps incrementing
*   then it has to be receiving something.)
* 

There are some Ipkts but very few as you can see in the following.

# netstat -in

* - Do you see any suspicious messages when you do a dmesg to look at the
*   kernel message buffer? The vr driver should report receive errors if
*   it encounters any.

Not at all, only `vr0: promiscuous mode enabled' when starting tcpdump.

* - If you run tcpdump on the vr0 interface (tcpdump -n -e -i vr0) can
*   you see the traffic from the other host? Try the following:
* 
* 	# arp -d 192.168.100.1
* 	# tcpdump -n -e -i vr0 &
* 	# ping -c 5 192.168.100.1
* 
*   Show us the output.
