We have a number of TCP/IP nodes around here (including VMS Vaxes) and are *finally* getting an ultrix node. I have it set up with decnet, tcp, and the internet gateway installed and working and have a few questions: Picture the following network: node A node B node C node D | | | | | | | | ----------------- ------------------ | (network1-decnet) | (network 2 - decnet) | | gateway 1 gateway 2 | | ---------------------------------------- (network3 - TCP) the general idea is that there are 2 networks (1 and 2) linked by 2 ultrix gateways that have TCP running between them and that two networks do not talk TCP at all (decnet only) I know I can set the ultrix gateways up so that mail can be sent between all nodes on the 2 decnet networks (although I might have to mess with the ultrix sendmail.cf files). Can I have mail from everywhere (to anywhere) work but still selectively restrict file access and remote logins from a remote network? In other words, can I allow node A to mail to B,C, or D but only allow users on A to login to C (prevent "A" users from logging into D). Can someone out there give me an example of some of the things YOU do locally? This gateway is great when everything is wide open but I have the need to be open for mail, somewhat more restrictive for file access (copy, etc), and rather heavily restrictive for remote logins between the two networks shown above... Thanks for any help. -- Vince Skahan Boeing Computer Services - Phila.
