Logcheck devel - Jul 2010 - dhcpd: Abandoning IP address 12.34.56.78 pinged before offer

Hi logcheckers,

I just realized that there is a rule matching log entries like

  Jul 13 16:14:03 dario dhcpd: Abandoning IP address 130.60.157.117: pinged
before offer

I would prefer to see such messages, because they indicate that either
the machine occupying the IP number in question is misconfigured (using
a static IP which is part of a dhcp pool) or that something bad happened
to the dhcpd.licenses file. 

Both things are of interest to the administrator of the machine running
dhcpd. Therefore I would like to remove the rule. Any opposition?

cheers,
Hp

I second that. But the rule was introduced by Martin in 9eeb7968, so 
let's see what he says about that.
