Instead, for proxy ARP to wrok, the remote IP address on the PPP link must be within a subnet defined by some broadcast-type (e.g., Ethernet) interface on the local system. The local IP on the PPP link doesn't matter. On top of that, given CIDR, there's just no way to look at an IP address and determine what might be or not be in the same subnet. You need the subnet mask to make that call. In any event, this is all a nit and likely has nothing to do with the originally reported problem. -- James Carlson 42.703N 71.076W <carlsonj@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ppp" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
