I did a "netstat -r" recently and noticed a new entry in my routing table
which wasn't there before ( the ethernet hardware address seems to have
all the bits set ).

destination             gateway              flags

[my network address]    ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff    UHLWb


Does this have anything to do with the fact that OLD BSD used the network
address as the BROADCAT ADDRESS ???


Thanks & regards, Brendan...
