Philip,
If I understand you right, we had the same problem with some nodes a while
back.
We also found it strange that Netview didn't get the right subnet mask, even
if the boxes may have had the wrong subnet mask when first connected to the
network.
Anyway, deletiing and redescovering (or manually adding) the objects did the
trick.
(Enterprise 10000 Solaris 2.7, NV 5.1.1 Framework 3.6.1)
