Re: Problem in DHCP requests Where is arpcom???


that arpcom you mention in eth_drv is surrounded by ifndef CYGPKG_NET
so it's not compiled if you use the NET package.

struct arpcom is defined by the TCP stacks in
net/bsd_tcpip/current/include/net/if_arp.h
and 
net/tcpip/current/include/netinet/if_ether.h
depending which *BSD stack you use.
