kernel: neighbour table overflow

[Jack Coats]

I am getting this message on both my laptop (RH 6.1 + suggested RPMs),
and my home server (RH 6.2 + suggested RPMs)

It seems to come about every two seconds while the mahcine is starting
up, and slows down.

No only is it annoying at this time, but a message like that tells me 
things are not 'right'.

Some news group archives indicate that this is an ARP table cache 
overflow, other messages say getting 'lo' interface up fixes it.
I don't know, but any help is appreciated!
