Someone else mentioned ip-sentinel. Arpwatch is also a useful tool. If this is on your internal network, you are best off tracing down which devices are conflicting and figuring out if this is intentional or some sort of bug. Someone capable of arp poisoning on your internal network might have done a lot more than suck bandwidth -- they can launch a number of man-in-the-middle attacks. thornton - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-admin" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
