+ARPWATCH 2.0
+Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory
+Network Research Group
+arpwatch@ee.lbl.gov
+ftp://ftp.ee.lbl.gov/arpwatch.tar.Z
+
+This directory contains source code for arpwatch and arpsnmp, tools
+that monitors ethernet activity and maintain a database of ethernet/ip
+address pairings. It also reports certain changes via email.
+
+Arpwatch uses libpcap, a system-independent interface for user-level
+packet capture.  Before building arpwatch, you must first retrieve and
+build libpcap, also from LBL, in:
+
+	ftp://ftp.ee.lbl.gov/libpcap.tar.Z.
+
+Once libpcap is built (either install it or make sure arpwatch and
+libpcap share the same parent directory), you can build arpwatch using
+the procedure in the INSTALL file.
+
+Arpsnmp has the same database features of arpwatch but relies on an
+external agent to collect the arp data. This distribution contains a
+script, arpfetch, that uses snmpwalk from the CMU SNMP package. This
+package is available from:
+
+	ftp://ftp.net.cmu.edu/pub/snmp-dist/cmu-snmp*.tar.Z
+
+It should be trivial to adaptive the output of any snmp query program
+for use with arpsnmp.
+
+Please send bugs and comments to arpwatch@ee.lbl.gov.
