Hi all,

Hopefully we've cooled down now and as usual we blame the 1 question with 20
threads after it.. defeats the purpose really.... any, here's my question.

I'm running RedHat 6.1 Kernel 2.2.12-20 and want to try the /etc/ethers file
with RARP.

when I run `rarp -a` I get "This kernel does not support RARP.".

Any ideas why?

I basically just want to be able to do a `ping printserver1` when there's an
entry in /etc/ethers as below.
00:00:B4:45:35:5F       printserver1

Can this be done or am I undestanding it wrongly..?

thanks,
George Vieira
