[comp.sys.apollo] Got it running. Thanks.

I posted a query on getting a DN-3000 with an
ADD-ETH Ethernet and a Token ring board operating
as a gateway.

First, the ADD-ETH board is not checked for in the
startup tests - if fact it will fail that test if
you configure the board as a controller.  Let it
be unknown, and your system gets past that problem.

Next, there was a series of calls from a friendly
who reads the net (THANKS, PAL!), who helped in 
getting not only the right /etc/hosts setup on
the Apollo side, but gave me the corrections to
the Ultrix side, too (they were not configured
right, nor running the right daemons).

One hint - newly created pty's work a lot better
if you delete the old ones first.  I won't go into
the symptoms here.

So, the gateway works fine!  Thanks for the help.
