"Oversized Ethernet frame..." .... length 0

?

The machine is a web server, which is accessible from the web via port redirects on 
the firewall.  I'm assuming that the packets originated from the web since it's a home 
network, but it would seem a little odd that packets redirected by one Debian machine 
(the firewall) would cause error messages in another.  There's a W2K Pro box and a 
Windows ME box on the network, but there are no redirects to them, and it is a private 
network (NAT on the firewall).

PS  I periodically get these ntpd messages... does it mean that synchronization is 
forever lost and I need to do something to fix it, or does it only indicate temporary 
loss of synchronization?
