@Matt_H:

If some machine in your LAN is configured so badly that it stomps on another machine's ARP information, I would start by fixing that problem and praise yourself lucky that AmigaOS has a network stack which actually bothers to tell you about the problem instead of ignoring it.

Who knows when that rogue machine starts messing up the ARP info pertaining to your OS4 machine?

Best regards,

Niels

Well, wouldn't you consider that a misconfiguration?

There must be a software-configured MAC address in at least one of the cases (otherwise the situation is even worse, since that would mean two devices were manufactured with identical hardware MAC addresses).

So it should be possible to change the MAC address on one of them and thus get rid of the errors.

Best regards,

That is not the way hardware is supposed to do with MAC addresses. Each NIC should have a unique MAC address (and a unique IP address).

If a router really changes that basic fact, throw it away ;-).
