Thank you for the explanation. I am going through a list of IP addresses from the prior systems administrator which is old and out dated. In the process I am doing ping sweeps to determine live hosts according to the list I have. Some of the IP addresses are documents just as I pasted...
The ping is being done from an XP SP2 workstation. I get the same results with CentOS. I have another subnet that this is happening with as well. Pasted are the results.
C:\WINDOWS\system32>ping 198.187.5.011
Pinging 198.187.5.9 with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 198.187.5.9: bytes=32...
No the machines are not clustered. These devices are 10/100 hubs and print servers (Intel). Interestingly enough if I ping 10.10.3.03 I get a reply from 10.10.3.11. Pinging 10.10.3.3 gets a reply from the expected address (10.10.3.3).
This is strange and I have not encountered this before...
Have any of you experienced addresses such as 10.10.3.03 and 10.10.3.3 being different? I was pretty sure that these are the same addresses however on our network these are two different hosts.
