Hi I am try to use ARP (specifically the -s flag) to map a MAC address t oa host name. After reading the man page, i tried: blondie# uname -a FreeBSD blondie.bowdoin.edu 4.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE #0: Wed May 2 22:11:53 EDT 2001 mcowger@diablo.bowdoin.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/BLONDIE i386 blondie# arp -s mytest 91:02:64:de:58:8f arp: mytest: Unknown host blondie# So....what am I doing wrong? (Note that I dont want to do this via DNS or /etc/hosts for other reasons) Thanx Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
