arp problem?

[spen]

I installed the arping and arpinged at the mac and after at the ip and got the same binding of 00:10:b5:df:b5:ff to 10.101.10.47
So I changed ip from 10.101.10.47 host to 10.101.10.48 and I don't get the message anymore.. 
weired thing though... cause there is no other client with this ip 10.101.10.47..
thank you :)

It appears that some host is misconfigured and is attempting to use an 
ocupied ip:

a) you have a static arp table with a different mac/ip.
b) your own interface is configured for that ip and someone else is trying 
to use it.

To investigate further: try using arping to find host with that mac and 
hosts with that ip.

Cheers, Erik
