I'm running a pmax version (DS5000/200) of netbsd (10/24 now, but it happens
with all the -current versions I ve tried), and I've been seeing errors like
the following:

Oct 24 18:31:29 winslow /netbsd: arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo
Oct 24 18:34:42 winslow last message repeated 5 times

Oct 25 02:01:22 winslow /netbsd: arplookup: unable to enter address for 82f870fc

Oct 25 07:59:53 winslow /netbsd: arplookup: unable to enter address for 0
Oct 25 08:06:18 winslow /netbsd: arplookup: unable to enter address for 0

Once I start getting these errors, it seems that (not surprisingly) it's
almost impossible to use tcp/ip connections from machines not already in the
arp table.  (During the above errors, there were 4 machines in the arp table,
and an entry marked 'incomplete' for the subnet broadcast address, for what
it's worth).

Any idea what I've screwed up??

Thanks,
Mike
