Hi,
  Thanks for the hint...although what about situations where you may not know the 
various gateway ips the client machines may have set to. We have students who bring 
their own machines and hookup as well to the lab network. I'm almost wondering if 
there is a way to proxy arp for 0.0.0.0/0 kind of network...basically don't care what 
the client machine ips are respond to arp requests.

Hope that makes sense.
