This happens also on another machine: vx0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet 146.164.63.6 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 146.164.63.255 ipx 92a43f00.60H ether 00:60:97:a7:50:68 lo0: flags=8049 mtu 16384 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 Of course, there's a conflict, because two cards cannot have the same address, at least in the same network. Both cards are 3Com 3c905. Maybe this is a problem especific to it ?
