MOre simply, what > can lead a slave node to endlessly query for RARP? it does sound from what you describe that the rarp request is going out on a device not attached to the network. i've booted dual-nic nodes, but never with one nic hanging out network-less. > Is Scyld really worth it? yes. single point of software and process administration, elminiating version skew of kernel and system libraries, presenting a more 'mature' computational model to the developer (slave nodes that are true slave nodes, instead of full linux installs). I'd love to see a debianization of scyld. it's one of those things i mean to do 'when i have time'. ==rob -- Rob Latham: linux A-Team Bethlehem, PA USA EAE8 DE90 85BB 526F 3181 1FCF 51C4 B6CB 08CC 0897
