[pptp-server] Local Network

I am having a similar problem, I can't ping inside the local network.
IP_Fwd is on, but I get a funky message from pppd in the messages file.  It
is ... pppd[1527]: Cannot determine ethernet address for proxy ARP

Any ideas?

Thanks again,

Jeff

in /etc/sysconfig/network put

FORWARD_IPV4="yes"

Has anyone tried mpd-netgraph under FreeBSD-4.0 (from /usr/ports) as a ppp 
replacement?
