Upgrade your kernel | sources to -stable and all will be well. Can anyone upgrade the kernel sources of 2.1-RELEASE to 2.2-stable (I assume you meant that) without expecting problems ? And, is it really fixed, or do you mean that ugly hack about first checking if there still is an old arp entry before setting up a new one ?
