Summary: Need rarpd for RISC/os 5.01 to reboot system

I need to find a RARPD that works on my Magnum 4000 workstation running
Risc/OS 5.01 in order to emergency reboot a server attached to it.  I
didn't realize that rarpd wasn't part of the standard distribution.

I know I usually have few difficulties building BSD 4.3 sources, so I've
xposted there, and to SGI.admin, since static binaries/sources probably
are pretty close (still) between platforms (and *technically* the
Magnum is an SGI product).

Any help would be most gratefully accepted!  Without a RARPD, my
normal net access will be shot for 2 working days.

Thanks muchly,

Brian
