Can anybody hellp me troubleshoot this error.
Using HP-Uxix B.10.X
" *****ARPA/9000 NETWORKING*****
Mon Jun 30 SAT 2003 20:18:12.xxxxxxx DISASTER Subsys: NS_LS_PROBE LOC:01001
Network NS_LS_PROBE DISASTER 1001, pid [ICS]
arp: ether address is broadcast for IP address zzzzzzz! "

where xxxxxx and zzzzzzz are numbers that change every time.
______________________________________________
-the server has a static IP
-the server is conected to a router
-the output of ifconfig lan0 is:
# ifconfig lan0
lan0: flags=863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,MULTICAST>
inet 131.190.107.24 netmask ffffffc0 broadcast 131.190.107.255

Is there a way to disable this message beacuse everytime it is displayed, it destroys anything that is being displayed.
Any help will be greatly appreciated

You could change /etc/syslog.conf to insure nothing goes to the console screen but to a file instead. Anywhere you have /dev/console in the /etc/syslog.conf, change it to a file.

You also might want to look at nettl and nettlgen.conf man pages which may be the reason you are getting these on the console.
