:When I try this:
:
: route add -host pandora -interface em0 -mtu 1500
:
:the routing table entry for pandora changes from:
:..
:Note the ARP going from pandora's to MINE -- and my machine loses the
:ability to talk to pandora, although pandora's packets keep coming...
:...
:
: -mi

    I've fixed the problem and slipped the stable tag for the changes.

    It turns out that this was a problem in FreeBSD-4 as well, at least in
    FreeBSD-4.9.
