Hello,

My FreeBSD 4.4 has the following log messages and I could not figure out how
this happens
and what it means.
Anytime this event occurs, the internet connection is dropped and then back
to normal again.

arp: 66.68.32.1 moved from 00:04:dd:5d:84:54 to 00:04:dd:5d:84:8c on fxp0

I believe 66.68.32.1 is the Road Runner gateway IP address and
00:04:dd:5d:84:54 is a correct MAC
address. This problem never occurs on 4.0 before I switch to 4.4, but it now
also happens on FreeBSD 4.0.

Thanks,
