ok i have changed the subnet to 255.255.255.0 with no change. The tcpdump command reveals something along the lines of "arp who-has 10.0.40.1 tell 10.0.40.2" with some numbers at the front of it. Thats on Eth1 which is the integrated NIC. I'm going to remove the accton and change the integrated to the internal settings and see what happens..
OK, that's not particularly helpful since that packet was generated by your machine anyway. What would be more useful would be to see packets generated by other machines "going past on the wire". Run tcpdump, make sure all the cables are plugged in and watch for traffic that doesn't originate from your machine. If you have Windows machines on the network then you should see something fairly soon, otherwise you may have to try artificially generating some broadcast traffic. Try pinging 192.168.3.200 from another machine on the internal network while running both tcpdump commands and see if anything shows up. Michael
