Yes. rarp from old net-tools still try to open /proc/net/rarp and depending on not avalaibability this file prints above message. Seem it is undocumented in kernel documentation from where can be downloaded new rarp tool. Anyone know from where it can be downloaded ? Previously pointed rarpd also cant be compiled without few changes (last release this package was in 1999). kloczek -- ----------------------------------------------------------- *Ludzie nie maj? problem?w, tylko sobie sami je stwarzaj?* ----------------------------------------------------------- Tomasz K?oczko, sys adm @zie.pg.gda.pl|*e-mail: kloczek@rudy.mif.pg.gda.pl* --8323328-2020929991-1095791293=:15099-- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
