We have a little problem with TCP/IP routing through NetWare servers.
We have a class B network but we mask it differently.  Currently we
are using, not the 255.255.0.0 mask, but 255.255.255.0 for subnets
on our campus.

We are having problems whenever something tries to ARP a node on
the other side of our NetWare TCP/IP router... because ARPs aren't
routed.

Is there a way to get the router to do proxy-ARPs?  If so I think
we could solve our problem.

There must be other groups out there who have needed to solve this
problem.  How have you handled it?

Email replies are preferred.  If I get a solution I'll post it.

Thanks.
