Thanks. Same to you.

I need to find all the arp-cache entries on the remote (server) host so that the local host (connected to the internet) can proxy-arp them. If there is another way, please advise. The daemons setup and tear down the routing and proxy-arp automatically as my remote machines come on-line. I use ioctls to set up and tear down everything, but there isn't a documentated way to find out what is in the arp cache except for /proc/net/arp!

This IS the broadcast address.....
