Sender: questions-owner@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk I've been using 'arp' to do this and was wondering if there's something else that just returns the host's ethernet addr in dot notation only. I'm trying to avoid having to parse the output from 'arp'. I want to use this command in my sysconfig file and pass it's output to ldconfig avoiding the need to hard code the host's address here like it's shown in that file's example.:-) Bob
