    Hello,

    We did the following for using proxy-arp in a machine

    1. Set /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/proxy_arp to 1 ( using echo )
    2. published arp entry for w.x.y.z ( using the command
            arp -H ether -i eth0 -Ds w.x.y.z eth0 pub

    The system responds for arp request for this address. But also responds
    for other unpublished addresses
    We tried with RedHat6.0 system on a pentium with two NE2000 compatible
    cards. We tried a newer kernel ( 2.2.14 ) when we had this problem but it
    still remains. Any help will be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    A.Ramasamy
