Problem with gratuitous arps in IPaddr2

Hi,

I encountered a problem with an ordinary IPaddr2 resource. In the logs I see:

IPaddr2[9651]: ERROR: Could not send gratuitous arps

With tcpdump I see, that the node sends out the arp requests, but does not
answer it:

arp who-has 188.92.128.250 (ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff) tell 188.92.128.250

With arping I tried to trace the problem a littel bit further and found the
following: It seems that the kernel / driver does not answer arp request
origination from an inferface of the server itself. arp requests from other
hosts are answered.

I checked the sysctl details, but nothing strange there. All parameters
related to arp are set to "0" (default).

I have seens this on different hardware and different kernel versions.

Any idea what might be wrong? Thanks.
