The rhing is that arp isn't working on Win2K...

What I want to do is:

01. Configure automatic NAT rules and some manual NAT rules as I see fit
(that can be done)
02. Configure MANUAL ARP by using local.arp as I used to do in CP2000 v4.1

I've created local.arp inside the STATE directory of the firewall, but IT IS
NOT working and I'm going insane. I had NO problems at all when I was using
CP2000 v4.1. I believe that the format of the file is correct (using
Notepad, I created the file, then I edited it with WordPad and it's format
is IP-Address <space> MAC_Address_of_Firewall_Interface). I also unchecked
in Policy, Global Properties "Automatic ARP Configuration", I bounced the
Management Server AND the Firewall Module (different Server), I re-installed
the policy, BUT, local.arp DOESN'T seem to be working...

Please, I'm going insane here. Has anyone seen this before? Can someone tell
me what the complete and correct procedure is to configure automatic NAT and
Manual NAT (as I see fit) AND Manual ARP configuration?

Please, I need your help.

Cheers,


Dimitris

I cant see that this should be any problem at all on Linux/Splat, and
also dont think it should be any problem to do this on windows.

But you have to configure this with manually nat rules as you say and
also manual proxy arp.

I'm not very windows friendly... but I guess that if you run "arp"
without options you get some examples to configure a static arp entry.
