For the last several days, most of my BSD machines appear to be missing 
or either not listening to ARP broadcasts. Several machines are missing 
route/arp entries for machines that are clearly on the backbone. I'm 
running the lastest supped version of 2.1, routed. If I try to manually 
add the arp entry it tells me the host isn't on the local network. It's 
frustrating because if I add my own route it doesn't do any good, because 
my Internet router does know about the machine and so whenever any 
destined for that IP gets the the router the router rebroadcasts the 
route and the BSD learns a route that has no gateway! The only cure thus 
far has been to reset the system. :(
