Here not Jeff. What I do understand from Jeff message is something like: "I can bitch on systemd, so I do" Time will tell how much Jeff contributes in solving the interesting problem of the invisible gratuitous ARP. Meanwhile lets follow-up on https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2023/10/msg00181.html > Thanks, > Balaji You might have an extra copy of this message.

Yes, I'm trying to tell that you missed https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2023/10/msg00181.html Regards Geert Stappers -- Silence is hard to parse
