[9.000][???] Bcase set to 0.0.0.0

Hi All,

I was playing around with 9.000 with static ip to brush up my understanding... but my ISP complained I was spamming their router :confused:

They say the issue is because I'm using the an incorrect broadcast address.
They asked for an ifconfig output which I provided.
Code:

eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:50:56:08:6B:A3 
          inet addr:91.121.217.18  Bcast:0.0.0.0  Mask:255.255.255.255
          inet6 addr: fe80::250:56ff:fe08:6ba3/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:5680710 errors:0 dropped:34 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:9385084 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:1307332196 (1246.7 Mb)  TX bytes:12986148619 (12384.5 Mb)

eth2      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:50:56:02:27:F3 
          inet addr:188.165.142.66  Bcast:0.0.0.0  Mask:255.255.255.255
          inet6 addr: fe80::250:56ff:fe02:27f3/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:191591767 errors:0 dropped:30 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:346758421 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:38529792169 (36744.8 Mb)  TX bytes:466337010392 (444733.6 Mb)

They came back to me saying the following:
Quote:

91.121.217.18 Bcast:0.0.0.0 Mask:255.255.255.255 - the broadcast should be 91.121.217.18 not 0.0.0
188.165.142.66 Bcast:0.0.0.0 Mask:255.255.255.255 the broadcast should be 188.165.142.66 not 0.0.0
I have no idea what I configured wrong and how to fix this.

Some more information:
- I'm using uplink balancing
- interfaces configured like this:



Any ideas?
