strange gratuitous arp requests continually sent by my Centos 5 Server


My Centos 5 server is sending out a gratuitous arp request every 2 seconds for address 10.10.10.0 giving as sender ip 10.10.10.0.

This behavior seems strange to me, because this is a network address and not a valid host address and it isn't even one of our network addresses.

I was wondering if someone would know what could be generating these requests, i've been poking around but have not found the source of these requests.

Help on this would be greatly appreciated.
