I have a single next system on a network that otherwise contains
Dec 4.3 BSD and Sun (OS 3.x and 4.x) machines.  I set up INETADDR
and HOSTNAME in /etc/hostconfig per the online 0.9 release notes.
In addtion, I removed the machines/broadcasthost entry from the
netinfo database as the instructions indicated.

When the machine boots, I get several nasty messages from
	/usr/etc/nmserver
(which calles itself netmsgserver once it is started).  Anyone 
have some ideas about what I missed in the setup that might cause
the following?

Jun  6 11:10:20 localhost netmsgserver[53]: Cannot get the socket broadcast address: errno=22
Jun  6 11:10:20 localhost netmsgserver[53]: Warning: could not find a useful broadcast address, using the CMU default.
Jun  6 11:10:20 localhost netmsgserver[53]: Broadcast address: 0x80020000
Jun  6 11:10:21 localhost netmsgserver[53]: Network Server initialised.

Thanks,
Ric
