So the rarp command doesnt work anymore? I'm sorry if I have made a silly
mistake but when I try to rarp -a it complains about no rarp in kernel.

I tried running rarpd as well...

Why should the kernel need to support it when the daemon does that for you?

*sigh*

The kernel support was just an in-kernel implementation of the RARP
server.  When using the 2.2 kernel support you'd use `rarp' to
initialise the address table.

You don't use `rarp' with 2.4, you use `rarpd' instead which
implements the RARP server in userspace.
