	"server" is not seeing the neighbor solicitation packet from "drifter",
	and that is the very reason DAD is not working.
	I guess you have either:
	- broken switch/hub inbetween (try putting 10Base-T cross cable)
	- broken ethernet card on either side
	- ethernet card with broken driver
		try using non-ex0 card on "server", or equivalent machine.
