I did not suggest a ping and demandpoll.  I suggested modifying your seed file.

I tried this. I removed my netman then I pinged the address from another
device and then I run demand poll on that device. The removed object does
not come up again. Sometimes I don't understand the logic of this cool stuff
:)

Any other idea?
