TOTALLY broken, this shouldn't be relevant. If you specify the IP address
only, it will supply netmask and broadcast/network addresses based on a
classful setup - that's pretty much what everything defaults to because
there HAS to be a default. If you specify the netmask and the IP address,
it will go to the first valid range that includes the netmask and the
given IP, then figure the broadcast address from there.
Are you seeing the broadcast address being set incorrectly even with the
netmask correctly identified by ifconfig? That could break all SORTS of
lovely things...
