    Hi all,

    I am having a terrible time answering this silly question.

    I am trying to load arp entries from a file at boot time.

    I can add the individual permanent arp entries with:
    arp -S hostname ether_addr

    But, when I reboot the system the arp entries are lost.

    I understand that I can load arp entries from a file with:

    arp -f file.txt

    file.txt = hostname ether_addr [temp] [pub]

    But, how can I make arp read this file at boot time?

    Thank you,

    -Tom
