Once upon a time Rod Hewitt shaped the electrons to say...
>Subnet #1:
>NT 4.0 Server @ 10.1.1.2 running DHCP server
>PM2i @ 10.1.1.1 running ComOS 3.7.2
>
>Subnet #2:
>Windows 95 PC with no IP address
>OR-U @ 10.1.2.1 running ComOS 3.7.2
>
>On the OR-U, I did a "set dhcp 10.1.1.2" to point it at the NT box on
>the other subnet.

Did you turn on dhcp-proxying in both the PM2i and the OR-U? I think both
ends of the link need to understand DHCP to handle it.

>When I try to get a lease on the Windows 95 PC, I see some traffic on
>subnet #2, but a packet trace on the PM2i doesn't show any traffic
>coming from the OR-U. Obviously, things like ping work between the two

Do a 'ptrace [filter] extended' on the OR - you should see the packets
coming in and then it sending packets out over the dial link. The same
thing on the PM-2i would show them coming in.
