What's 'talvath's ethernet address? Does the RARP server know that
address? I've never bothered with RARP in Linux, but in Solaris the
information is in the '/etc/ethers' file or the 'ethers' NIS map/NIS+
table. Something like
8:0:20:76:e3:e9 talvath
You'll also need 'talvath's IP address in the RARP server's host file
or in DNS, and you'll also need the client and servers all on the same
subnet.
