[Tfug] duplicate ip address (off topic)

[lukkystarr at excite.com]

You don't have to try build a network just to try that, I can do it for you.  I turned on the other computer after reading the first post, just cause I'm curious.  I couldn't tell you much though, just if there are any problems.  I know little about what the router really does, and how it logs the tables they are talking about.
