link-local address via ifconfig

Hi, There are plenty of people who still use ifconfig to list the addresses assigned to their network interfaces (I know, ifconfig is broken) and who then parse the output. However the kernel puts link-local scoped address first if the address list of an interface, so an interface like: eve:[~]%

receiving ARP packets

Hi, I'm writing a program which receives ARP packets and have noticed that broadcast ARP packets seem to come in with the destination hardware address set as all zeros. Whereas tethereal indicates that the packet has a broadcast MAC address. My code: int arp_open(struct intf *intf) { int as;
