This is a desperate cry for help with KIP... I am trying to upgrade to KIP/0688 but when I loading with FastPath Manager, it stalls for an uncomfortable few seconds then says "Sorry the gateway appears to be busy". I click the OK button, then GO button, then diagnostics says KFPS lives. I run atis and atistest - they appear OK. I start aufs, and it's log looks OK (SPInit complete), but I can't see the bloody AUFS server in the Chooser. Nor can I see lwsrv, all I can see is the IPGATEWAY and IPADRESS. Has anyone got a clue? Background ========== We have predominantly SUNs (UNIX 4.2 BSD), one MIPS (UNIX 4.3 BSD), and one VAX-11/750 (UNIX 4.2 BSD) and some other UNIXs not worth mentioning. We disabled redirected broadcast on our MIPS (i.e. "netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 126.0.0.0"), so we don't comply with RFC919/922. The machine running atalkad is 126.10.0.41 (yap) and the gateway is 126.10.0.65 (and other gateways will be 126.11.0.65, etc). /etc/atalkatab is ................................................................. 55.10 N2 126.10.0.0 Omneity #Dept Ethernet 55.10 H 126.10.0.65 Omneity #Dept Ethernet 90.10 KC 126.10.0.65 Omneity #appletalk I126.10.0.0 I126.10.0.41 #ipbroad ipname I126.10.0.41 L0 #ipdebug ipfile L0 L0 L0 L0 S0 S0 #ipother atnetet ddprangestart LX0 S2 S16 #flags ipstatic ipdynamic S90.10 S55.10 #atneta atnete ................................................................. and /etc/atalk.local is .................................... # mynet mynode myzone 55.10 41 Omneity # bridgenet bridgenode bridgeIP 55.10 65 126.10.0.65 ....................................

Why does the gateway say it is busy? Why is it that AUFS does not appear in the Chooser (nor does lwsrv)? Can anyone advise? I will be most grateful for any response, even unhelpful sympathetic ones (because I always loose 2 years of my life when I even look at /etc/atalkatab).
