+                having trouble detecting two dhcp offers that were within
+                1/10th of a second of each other

-* Single Scan mode (default) will send a single DHCPDISCOVER packet to the network
-  and wait a configurable number of seconds for unauthorized servers.
-* Continuous mode will continue to run, sending DHCPDISCOVER packets every <frequency> minutes,
-  sending out alerts etc.
-
-Single Scan mode is good for running from the commandline periotically or from a cron script, while
-Continuous mode is good for letting the detector run indefinately.

-  --continuous          Cause the program to run in a loop, sending DHCPDISCOVER occationally
-                        and listning for replies
-  --nocontinuous        (default) Send only one DHCPDISCOVER and wait only long enough for
-                        a response. Then quit. (for commandline or crontab use)
-  --freq=x              In continuous mode only: how long between DHCPDISCOVER packets
-  --waitfor=x           In normal (non-continuous) mode only: how long to wait after
-                        sending a DHCPDISCOVER for replies.
-  --iface=interface     Network interface to use (eg eth0). Unfortunately only one
-                        can be done at a time (sorry) run multiple copies for now.
-  --daemon/--nodaemon   in continuous mode only: wether or not the program should
-                        fork and go into the background. Default is yes.
-  --debug=x             Debug level. 1-5 supported. 3 is good for info. higher levels
-                        give more information.

-Our resnet has 19 subnets, so I use a linux box with 19 aliased interfaces in 
-addition to its onboard network.In linux they are eth0, eth0.0132, eth0.0133, etc... 
-so I must run 19 copies of dhcpdetect.pl, one for each interface
+We run dhcpdetect every 5 min on all 19 interfaces
