Description

Ok i start to get tyerd of this problem.

after a reboot i check arp table(diag_arp.php) and find all IP and hostname are intact. but after a wile hostname disepear.
So i am investigating now why this hapen.

Same problems with Arpwatch But there i have vendor problems. its only say "unknown"

When i look in firewall logs for external IP adress and want to look them up i also get unknown.
I dont know if this is same issue or tre different ones.

IN -> diag_arp.php
// Read in leases file
$leasesfile = "{$g['dhcpd_chroot_path']}/var/db/dhcpd.leases";
