If you want to use proxy ARP on an entire sub-network, I

http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/mini/Proxy-ARP-Subnet/. If you
decide to use the technique described in that HOWTO, you
can set the proxy_arp flag for an interface
(/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<interface>/proxy_arp) by
including the proxyarp option in the interface's record in
/etc/shorewall/interfaces. When using Proxy ARP
sub-netting, you do NOT include any entries in
/etc/shorewall/proxyarp. "

Does Tom mean /etc/shorewall/interfaces?

No, I mean /etc/shorewallproxyarp. If you are proxy arping an entire network the /etc/shorewall/proxyarp file is empty and you simply set the 'proxyarp' option on the external interface and on the interface to the network in the /etc/shorewall/interfaces file.


I have 5 public
IPs of which 1 resides on eth0 and 3 others withing the
DMZ on eth2. I would need to adjust
/etc/shorewall/proxyarp - correct?


Yes -- see http://www.shorewall.net/shorewall_setup_guide.htm for more information.
