I mean this sort of thing happens;

Port uhf: AX25: VK2XLZ-1->QST <UI> pid=ARP
ARP: len 30 hwtype AX25 prot IP op REQUEST
sender IPaddr 44.136.11.129 hwaddr VK2XLZ-1
target IPaddr 44.136.8.95

Port uhf: AX25: VK2XFW-3->VK2XLZ-1 <UI C> pid=ARP
ARP: len 30 hwtype AX25 prot IP op REPLY
sender IPaddr 44.136.8.95 hwaddr VK2XFW-3
target IPaddr 44.136.11.129 hwaddr VK2XLZ-1

Port uhf: AX25: VK2XLZ-1->QST <UI> pid=ARP
ARP: len 30 hwtype AX25 prot IP op REQUEST
sender IPaddr 44.136.11.129 hwaddr VK2XLZ-1
target IPaddr 44.136.8.95

Port uhf: AX25: VK2XFW-3->VK2XLZ-1 <UI C> pid=ARP
ARP: len 30 hwtype AX25 prot IP op REPLY
sender IPaddr 44.136.8.95 hwaddr VK2XFW-3
target IPaddr 44.136.11.129 hwaddr VK2XLZ-1

You see, XFW is replying to my ARP requests correctly but my Linux is just
ignoring them and keeps sending out ARP requests, this just keeps on
happening. This is with kernel 2.1.17.
