i've got a bunch of email from arpwatch telling me
that there are flip flop and changing ethernet
address. does this mean there's an arp spoofing going
on in my network?? how do i stop this?? these users
also reported that their operating system told them on
their screen there's another machine using the same
ip# as theirs and their connection to the network was
also disconnected.

i notice that most of the mac address flip flop are
using the same mac address which is 0:c0:26:2b:d0:1d.

here's the arpwatch email sample :
1.
 hostname: CAHYADI
          ip address: 192.168.5.44
    ethernet address: 0:80:48:1e:27:32
     ethernet vendor: Compex, used by Commodore and
DEC at least
old ethernet address: 0:c0:26:2b:d0:1d
 old ethernet vendor: <unknown>
           timestamp: Monday, November 3, 2003
14:21:06 +0700
  previous timestamp: Monday, November 3, 2003
14:13:56 +0700
               delta: 7 minutes

2.
hostname: DENY
          ip address: 192.168.5.105
    ethernet address: 0:2:b3:17:81:33
     ethernet vendor: <unknown>
old ethernet address: 0:c0:26:2b:d0:1d
 old ethernet vendor: <unknown>
           timestamp: Monday, November 3, 2003
14:16:22 +0700
  previous timestamp: Monday, November 3, 2003
14:15:22 +0700
               delta: 1 minute

gregor
