Okay.  You're trying to configure the machine using an IP number that's
already in use somewhere on the network.  Make sure you copied it right
from MacTCP, and if you did, make sure MacTCP wasn't running when you
started NetBSD.  That _could_ be a problem, perhaps -- it's a long shot,
though, really.  :-)

Also, somebody in charge of those error messages, could you judiciously
insert a few \n's, please?  :-) 

Okay, the gateway address may or may not be right, but there's no way to
be sure, since the IP address you put in didn't work.

Can't find the nameserver because it couldn't connect to the network
because the IP address conflicted with another machine.

Same there.  eth0 couldn't configure correctly, so there's no route to
anything but localhost (through... lo0 maybe?).

Hope that helps,
