..... yes, look out for the netmask, ifconfig is not perfect. Do

	ifconfig ec0 (or whatever type you have),

and set correct netmask. For my class-C addresses, ifconfig tried with
0xffffffff, and 386BSD cried out loud about bad routers etc (netmask
should of course be ffffff00 for a class-C net...)
