Sorry I am replying to myself. I realized the English in pkg/DESCR is horrible. I wonder how it could be so bad since I got it from the author's website.
Anyway I fixed it after someone pointed out the problem in a personal mail. It now reads better. $ cat pkg/DESCR ipguard listens on the network for ARP packets. All permitted MAC/IP pairs are listed in the 'ethers' file. If it receives an ARP packet with a MAC/IP pair which is not listed in 'ethers' file, it will send an ARP reply with a fake address. This will prevent unregistered hosts from working properly on this ethernet segment. ---------------- http://gayatri-hitech.com/Misc/ipguard.tgz I am not sure if we should go for a separate FLAVOR. Should I apply the broadcast patch to the default port? Thanks. -Girish
