Fixed my local.arp problem.
I was replacing a server.  Therefore same external IP addr but different
Ethernet address.  Upstream router needed its (somehow permanent) arp cache
flushing.

Just for the record: The local.arp file can have a space or tab between
fields. I found no problem with using notepad for editing - as long as you
watch the .txt at the end ;-)

Many thanks,

Shane

Subject: [FW1] Where is FW1 dir specified?



Dear Gurus,

I've just put together an NT gateway (FW-1 v4.1 SP2).  

Everything seems to work OK apart from external web access to the DMZ

I have local.arp and routes setup.

Access is OK from the internal net - which is also uses ext. web translated
address.
I think this means that address translation, DNS and routing is OK.

Therefore things are pointing towards the local.arp.  
Its definitely not called local.arp.txt
Its definitely in the ...\state directory.
Its definitely using the correct '-' format

the FW1 dir is d:\fw1\4.1\   [4.1 doesn't default to %sysroot%\fw]

How can I tell whether FW1 is actually looking at the correct dir for the
file?
How can I tell whether FW1 finds the local.arp file?
