arpalert
arpalert uses ARP address monitoring to help prevent unauthorized connections on the local network. If an illegal connection is detected, a program or script is launched, which could be used to send an alert message, for example.

Fails to run
The package configures & compiles.
At runtime, "arpalert -d" produces:
Aborted
and the /var/log/messages shows:
Oct 6 09:09:53 beast2 arpalert: [loadmodule.c 37] stat[2]: No such file or directory ()
Ideas?
Thanks!
Tom
