I see this now, don't know when it changed:
[bgmilne@bgmilne bgmilne]$ /sbin/route|grep 169
169.254.0.0     *               255.255.0.0     U     0      0        0 eth0

I presume this is to support the Windows "Auto-configuration IP address"
thing. If so, is there anything that still needs to be done
(/etc/network-scripts/ifup.d/ ?) to make something like
smb://windows-machine work out-the-box when connecting to a
DHCP/Autoconfiguration-enabled Windows machine to a Mandrake box?

Even better would be a working lisa, but kio_lan is still too broken for
this to even help.

If ifplugd worked on the 3c589_cs I would give it a test ...
