I notice that once I have ifplugd or netplug emerged, the net init script won't pick up the arping config I defined in /etc/conf.d/net anymore, and will go straight to dhcpcd.

I have these in /etc/conf.d/net
Code:

config_eth0="arping"
fallback_eth0="dhcp"

followed by arping config (gateways_eth0, etc).

Is there a way to get ifplugd or netplug to play nice with arping?

What if you instruct OpenRC not to use ifplug on eth0?

Oh, I get what you mean now. After adding this:
Code:
modules="!netplugd"

to /etc/conf.d/net and then starting netplugd separately, both netplug and arping co-exist peacefully now. Still, it would be better if OpenRC can support this transparently.
