configuration daemon for ethernet devices

ifplugd is a daemon which will automatically configure your ethernet device when a cable is plugged in and automatically de-configure it if the cable is pulled out. This is useful on laptops with onboard network adapters, since it will only configure the interface when a cable is really connected. Features include:

 * syslog support
 * Multiple ethernet interface support
 * Uses Debian's native ifup/ifdown programs
 * Small executable size and memory footprint
 * Option to beep when the cable is unplugged or plugged
 * Option to beep when the interface configuration succeeds or fails
 * Can be configured to ignore short unplugged or plugged periods
 * Configure WLAN devices (on detecting a successful association to an AP)
 * Supports SIOCETHTOOL, SIOCGMIIREG and SIOCDEVPRIVATE for getting link status
 * Compatibility mode for network devices which do not support cable detection
