Hi! I have a question regarding MacTCP and NCSA Telnet. I have a network of LocalTalk Macs, one of which has a scsi/ethernet box and is running Apple Internet router.On the same ethernet as the scsi/ethernet mac is a multigate with the EtherTalk interface configured to decode Ethertalk packets into IP packets. When I use NCSA Telnet on one of my other LocalTalk machines (non MacTCP) version, I can telent to a Unix host on the ethernet no worries - the multigate dynamically allocates an IP number for the LocalTalk Mac. HOWEVER, when I use the MacTCP version (1.0.1) of NCSA Telnet (2.3 or 2.4) I can't get a telnet session going! I have configured MacTCP with the correct LocalTalk zone for the Multigate (same as non MacTCP version) and have entered the correct IP address for the multigate. I have also set the class type (B) and the subnet mask. ie. multigate allocates addresses from 130.194.224.241-130.194.224.248 in the network field I have 33474 (130.194) and 224 in the subnet field. The node field is empty I have selected dynamically from the assign sectio and inserted 241-248 as the node range. Subnet mask = 255.255.255.0 Any ideas why the nonMacTCP version works and the MacTCP version doesn't?? By the way, I am using system6.0.4 and finder 6.1.4 (international versions) Any ideas/comments would be appreciated. Thanks in advance Paul Email: sci213v@monu6.cc.monash.edu.au

From the assign section you should use "Server", not dynamic. cmc <cmclark@terminator.cc.umich.edu>

All you need to do is select the zone (as you have done) and select SERVER, not dynamic. The other settings i.e. net class, subnet address etc are meaningless - the MultiGate knows all these. If you are still having problems, try e-mailing me or the MultiGate list. Cheers. -- David E. Bellamy Email: bellamy@covax.commerce.uq.oz.au Dept.
