Certainly, 255.255.255.255 (or no ATF_NETMASK) will work.
As I understnad, you specified netmask 255.255.255.0
just as a random guess, does not it? 8)
I am glad, fool-proof check introduced in 2.1.16 worked!


Another variant.
As I remember I've already proposed you not to mess with proxy arp.
Just make "default" proxy arp entry:
arp_req = {
	arp_ha = no mattter what
	arp_pa = 0
	arp_flags = ATF_PUBL|ATF_NETMASK
	arp_netmask = 0
	arp_dev = zeros
}
That's all. No more fiddling with proxy arp is necessary.

Alexey Kuznetsov.
