Proxy ARP entries are not installed into the routing table. I believe I have fixed this issue in svn r201282 and merged into 8-STABLE http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=201282 http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=201614 The keyword "only", as documented in the manpage, requires a host route to be present or else the proxy arp command will fail. I can forward you an offline exchange I had with Juergen Lock on this subject. > > (b) the PPP > daemon can't create or destroy many of the routes that the > connections need to work. > The above patch also include fixes for routing related problem as you will note in the commit message, although I am uncertain if your problems fall into this category. > > I can't believe that a version of a major operating system shipped > without the ability to do PPP, but apparently that's the case! > Various users reported problems in the vpn/ppp area and those were addressed before the release. Given the diverse usage of the operating system, it's fair to say that I try my best to perform the necessary test coverage, but it's difficult to be inclusive of all scenarios. In any case, I am here to work with you to resolve your issues as quickly as I can. -- Qing _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
