-# NOTE: This is added to relieve one site's Cisco router configuration that
-# fails to recognize the host once the arping is sent out.
-# NOTE: this is pretty fragile, and fails on fedora 10 that as of today (oct. 20 2009)
-# has initscripts-8.86.3-1.i386 which reads almost identical but with /sbin/arping instead
-# NOTE: this might work with fedora8 and centos5
-# the other distros will probably just fail to add this patch
