X-BeenThere: freebsd-net@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Networking and TCP/IP with FreeBSD List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 30 Mar 2010 19:35:05 -0000 Hello All, I've recently set up a FreeBSD 8.0 VPN server with mpd5 for people to connect remotely. However, looking at my mpd.log shows that I'm having problems with proxy-arp: [B-1] IFACE: No interface to proxy arp on for 192.168.1.185 In googling for solutions, I came across others who have posted to this list who have had similar problems. It also looks like a problem report has been submitted for proxy arp being broken in 8.0 RELENG. My options are 1) to wait until proxy arp is fixed (don't know how long that will take), or 2) go back and implement my VPN using 7.2 (would require a lot of effort). I was wondering if anyone else could suggest other alternatives that would allow my external clients to access my intranet without proxy arp.
