Hi all,

I did not read the beginning of this thread, and I don't know if this has
been said before, so forgive me if it's irrelevant:

I highly suggest you use arpwatch. It's a daemon that monitors MAC/IP on a
network, and can notify the administrator when something changes.

If you want to force the MAC for an IP, use "arp -f /etc/ethers" (man arp).
Iptables does the same thing with MAC matching, but using arp with a fixed
table is "the proper thing to do" (tm).

I hope this helps.

Regards,

Sylvain
