I've never seen a netmask of all zeroes... but I have had trouble in the =
past=20
to get two nics in my machine to bind to the same subnet.  I think in tho=
se=20
situations, it doesn't know which nic to use when broadcast to the subnet=
=2E

If you don't have a preference or a reason for using those IP addresses, =
try=20
this instead:

ifconfig_sn0=3D"inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0"
ifconfig_ae0=3D"inet 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.255"
