Don,
>>When we had similar problems on some of our UNIX boxes at work, we found
the broadcast addresses had to be set at either all 1's or all 0's (I
forget now which was required…I believe it had to be all 1's).
It turned out to be the usermask value rather than the broadcast address.
If I set the usermask to 255.0.0.0, everything worked fine. I have no idea
why, except that the loopback addresses may have conflicted with the
network addresses.
