Andrew,
                I am also having the same problem with connecting to shares on
servers other than the firewall itself.  Has anyone found an answer to this
issue?  I know that proxyarp is working, according to the syslog.  I even get
the browse list of the internal network, however when I try to browse that
server, the network path is unavailable.  Clues anyone?

Sam
