routing broadcast messages

Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control

Hello.

I would like to route broadcast messages.
For now, if I ping a.b.c.255 from m.n.o.w the packet is passing through
each router, except the last, a.b.c.1 (m.n.o.p, other "external" address)
and only he replys to that packet, but not from a.b.c.1, he does it from
m.n.o.p address (logic, it's the address of the output interface).

simple pic.   a.b.c.0/24--[ a.b.c.1, m.n.o.p ]---m.n.o.w

How can i fix this problem??
It could be very cool tool to know, how many hosts are up in your netS.
Combined with VPN from FreeS/WAN (he transports brdcast as other ip
trafic) makes administration easier.

thanks for help.
