/*
** ETHER_LINE
**
** This routine parses the array pointed to by "line" (which should be
** from a file in the format of /etc/ethers) and returns in "eaddr" the
** ethernet address at the start of the line and the corresponding host
** name in "hostname". It assumes either tabs or spaces separate the
** two. The buffer pointed to by "hostname" must be big enough to hold
** the host name plus a NULL byte.
** The function returns 0 on success and 1 on failure.
** Arguments are assumed sensible. Null pointers will probably cause
** exceptions.
** Author: Gregory J. Sharp, July 1990
