Nevermind...

During all the troubleshooting I neglected to take the comment out of
the most recent version of the conf file.

Thanks anyway,

Chad

Great! That regex worked wonderfully!

Unfortunately though it seems there still isn't anything being written
to the log files. If I run it without the daemon flag I can see that it
is seeing and identifying ARP on the network but it doesn't seem to be
writing it anywhere within the /usr/local/arpalert/* structure or
/var/log/messages.

Suggestions?

Thanks!

Chad

Hello,

This is an error in the howto. In the version 2, the leases file is not
directly compatible with the maclist.allow file.

you may use this little script

cat arpalert.leases | sed -e "s/[0-9]\{10\}.*$//" > maclist.allow
