Hello all. I seem to be one of the only people out here running with arpd support built in, so I don't expect others will notice this. In 2.1.15 if arpd support is configured, the kernel will fail to build. A patch for the offending code in arp.c is included here.
--- arp.c.orig Thu Dec 12 10:14:29 1996 +++ arp.c Thu Dec 12 10:14:37 1996 @@ -1074,7 +1074,7 @@ add_timer(&entry->timer); #ifdef CONFIG_ARPD if (!arpd_not_running) - arpd_lookup(entry->ip, entry->dev); + arpd_lookup(entry->ip, dev); else #endif arp_send(ARPOP_REQUEST, ETH_P_ARP, entry->ip, dev, entry doesn't have a dev field, which is why dev gets selected out at the top of the function.
It seems that whatever the bug was that was causing arpd to die in previous kernels has been fixed, though. Good job!
