OK, but I warned you, it's a kludge.
Well it's a lil better then nothing at all right?
The code makes a LOT of assumptions that may only be valid in my home network, but perhaps the ideas will be useful. I have considered rewriting this in Perl, but it works and I really need the time for other projects.
It's the ideas that I like to see and the methodology behind it. I have to admit I liked the idea of the /etc/eth file for MAC to Hostname translation.
&& Why you scrub the MACS?
Sheer paranoia and long-standing habit.
Elaborate, you that paranoid? Over paranoid gets you faster than scrubing MACs. I would worry about, does my router have holes in it? Plus let your MAC fly on the wireless network. I let my neighbor connect to mine, they can't afford the internet. One caveat, all they have is net access.
