rarp on RTs?

Does anyone know anything about reverse arp on the RTs?  I'd like to have
some RTs here (6150/125 & 6152s) running IBM/4.3 (Dec 88) act as reverse
arp servers, but I can't find any reference to rarp in the IBM docs.
I'm up for kernel hacks if that's what it takes.  Any information would
be appreciated.

I don't think any support for RARP is shipped with IBM/4.3.  What we
did in this situation was download the bootpd sources from uunet
and compile them.   So far, this has worked for us.

Disclaimer:  I am speaking for myself not for IBM.
