I have an interface (le0) configured as 192.129.84.3. I then
ifconfig le0 alias 192.129.84.9
...This seems fine. I can't ping the address .9, but
route add 192.129.84.9 localhost
fixes that.
But now, nearby machines can't ping 192.129.84.3 anymore.
I have to give them
route add 192.129.84.3 gw 192.129.84.9
(the "gw" is because they're Linux.)
Is this a NetBSD bug? a Linux bug? A stupid configuration mistake?
