No. A 3.0 machine (running as a router and WINS (samba) server) should have sent them out too but doesn show this in the routes. > > Is that the only machine with an if_ether.c newer than rev 1.27 > (Feb. 5, 1996)? No. The machine it was happening on has: * @(#)if_ether.c 8.1 (Berkeley) 6/10/93 * $Id: if_ether.c,v 1.35 1996/11/15 18:50:31 fenner Exp $ */ There are a lot of other machine built with that version of if_ether.c in the net. Possibly only the one mentioned (router/samba WINS) might have sent broadcasts recently as well. > > I think this is probably to be expected. > > Bill --Chris Christoph P. U.
