on network 192.168.1.0/24
you mean 192.168.1.1/24 ..
Because I love both Dragons , I installed both .. NetBSD is installed on 16g usb flash for testing and if I overcome the prob I'm installing it to a spare 120g disk ..
I dont't have a dual OS machine ..

Here is the OpenBSD output of ifconfig -a :
Code:
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 33196
        priority: 0
        groups: lo

        inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x4
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000

        lladdr 00:16:d4:d2:d6:5e
        priority: 0
        media: Ethernet autoselect (none)
        status: no carrier

        priority: 0
        groups: enc

pflog0: flags=141<UP,RUNNING,PROMISC> mtu 33196
        priority: 0
        groups: pflog
please consider the following :
* no route to host when installing via pkgsrc (persistent prob since I installed NBSD)
* I can ftp connect to all NetBSD mirrors via OpenBSD .. whereas on NetBSD I cannot except the jp.netbsd.org server ..
is it an ftp conf issue ?? or an ipv6 one ?? but then why was jp.netbsd reachable ??
Maybe now you realize why I downloaded that huge 13g of NetBSD.5.1 pkgs via Openbsd just to be able to locally install them on my NetBSD box .. only I could not do that too because of the pkg_install error .. so I am between scylla and charybdis : neither can I use pkgsrc nor install local pkgs ..

* yes the prob is persistent .. whenever I use pkgsrc it successfully fetches one or two pkgs but most of the time fails to get others ending up in a timeout ..
* even the "fr/se/es/.netbsd.org" servers fail me .. so it is not a us.mirror problem ..
* lol .. yes from official website I downloaded then compiled lynx .. the only successful pkg so far ..
.. ping and host work fine ..
