Title: Monitor IP or MAC changes in LAN
Post by: sebahot on June 20, 2005, 11:32:00 PM

Is there a way to monitor changes of IP and/or MAC on client computers in the LAN from SME server?
I've searched the web for this but all I found is win32 software. I would like something to work on linux.
I use SME 6.0.1.

arpwatch is probably what you want. Here's an article about it:
