Hi List!

The should be the last experimental release of dhcpcd-4.99 as the last feature I wanted is now in - ARP ping support. This is handy for mobile sites that require a static IP. You can configure it like so:

###########################################
interface bge0
arping 192.168.0.1

# 192.168.0.1 exists on more than one site
# so we differentiate by hardware address
profile 00:11:22:33:44:55
static ip_address=192.168.0.10/24
static domain_name_servers=192.168.0.2

# All other profiles for 192.168.0.1
profile 192.168.0.1
static ip_address=192.168.0.20/24
static domain_name_servers=192.168.0.1
###########################################

So, get testing it and report back any bugs, even compile warnings  :)

Thanks

Roy
