Hi, 

1.3.89 seems to have some problems with ARP. I have a dialin server
with 1.3.89 and sometimes (every 1-2 days) it has problems to resolve the 
arp addresses of other hosts on the local network. I can't ping another 
host in the local network (running 1.3.9x) from a host that has a dialup 
connection to the dialin server. When I login into the dialin server the 
ping works (and after that it works from the other host too). 

That is in the kernel log of the dialin server: 

arp_cache_bind: fe21548d backlogged
arp_run_bh: fe21548d reinstalled
arp_run_bh: entry fe21548d was born dead
arp_cache_bind: fe21548d backlogged
arp_run_bh: fe21548d reinstalled
arp_run_bh: entry fe21548d was born dead
arp_cache_bind: fe21548d backlogged
arp_run_bh: fe21548d reinstalled
arp_run_bh: entry fe21548d was born dead

Any ideas? 

-Andi
