Strange NMAP results

     This is what is in my /etc/rc.conf. They are listed at the bottom of the 
file because I took this rc.conf from my other machines. Should that matter?
network_interfaces=dc0
ifconfig_dc0="inet 192.168.1.109 netmask 0xffffff00"
ifconfig_lo0="dhcpinet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000"
