The proxyarp command in pppd : doesn't seem to do anything, and so I'm explicitly issuing an "arp -s" : command (on the FreeBSD system at work connected to both the modem and : the LAN).

It's not a netmask problem, : and I tried recompiling the kernels with the GATEWAY option, but nothing : helps. The "arp -s" does seem to be working, as other systems on the : LAN do respond to it (I checked via "arp -a" on these systems). It sounds like you have about the same setup as me, using a FreeBSD system on both ends. Did you use 'pub' at the end of the arp -s command? Loren
