Not only IP addresses, but, most importantly hardware addresses. I
suspect DHCP is a player in the mix due to the fact that "several people
were 'hung' this morning". Are the users system administrators trying to
perform a NIM install or business end users trying to log into the
workstations? Please clarify.

Your machine mango1 is running a bootp daemon. Everytime it gets a
bootp packet, it checks a file called /etc/bootptab. The error is
coming from the fact that the adresses don't exist in that file (on
mango1).
