Description Daniel Duerr 2019-12-16 22:31:02 UTC
Hi,

I just installed the 3.0 update and found a bug.  Here’s how we configure arpwatch on our firewalls:

[dd@fw1 etc]$ grep arpwatch /etc/rc.conf
arpwatch_enable="YES"
arpwatch_interfaces="lagg0.6 lagg0.7 lagg0.10"

Here’s what happened on start:

[dd@fw1 dd]$ sudo service arpwatch start
Starting arpwatch.
Version 3.0
usage: arpwatch [-CdFNpqsvzZ] [-D arpdir] [-f datafile] [-i interface]
	 [-P pidfile] [-w watcher@email] [-W watchee@email]
	 [-n net[/width]] [-x net[/width]] [-r file]
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/arpwatch: WARNING: failed to start arpwatch

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/arpwatch: WARNING: failed to start arpwatch

Turns out it was a simple bug in the `eval` of the rc.d/arpwatch script.  Here’s what fixed it for me:

[dd@fw1 etc]$ diff -u rc.d/arpwatch.bad rc.d/arpwatch
--- rc.d/arpwatch.bad	2019-12-16 02:02:32.000000000 -0800
+++ rc.d/arpwatch	2019-12-16 12:33:12.376475000 -0800
@@ -47,7 +47,8 @@
 	if [ $cmd == start ]; then
 		prep_datfile ${fn}
 	fi
-	eval options=\$arpwatch_${interface}_options
+	options_interface=`echo ${interface} | tr '.' '_'`
+	eval options=\$arpwatch_${options_interface}_options
 	command_args="-i ${interface} -f ${fn} -P ${pidfile} ${options}"
 }

My fix is probably a bit primitive, but should help someone make the permanent fix.

Thanks,
Daniel
