We have an in-house IP network, one node of which is also connected (via SLIP) to the Internet. Since our network doesn't yet have "connected" status, it will be a separate community, but the single connected node should also be part of the general Internet community. We also have an in-house X.25 (1980/84/88) network, not connected (for purposes of this discussion) to anything outside. The IP network and the X.25 network overlap at some nodes, but each has some not on the other. The X.25 network should be another community. I'd like to make the Internet-connected machine a TS-bridge between our in-house IP network and the Internet. I'd also like to establish at least one of the machines on both our in-house IP network and our in-house X.25 network as a TS-bridge between those communities. So far, I've tried the following isomacros: mst-x25 TELEX+00728722+X.25(80)+04+ mst-tcp TELEX+00728722+RFC-1006+06+ and the following tailoring on the Internet-connected machine, following the examples in chapters 6 and 8 of volume 2 of the ISODE User's Manual: ns_enable: on ns_address: Internet=volitans.morningstar.com+17002+2 ts_stacks: tcp ts_interim: mst-x25 mst-tcp ts_communities: mst-x25 mst-tcp internet default_x25_community: mst-x25 tsb_communities: internet=volitans.morningstar.com+17002+2 tsb_default_address: internet=volitans.morningstar.com+17002+2 mst-x25=[the X.121 address we use in-house]+PID x25_local_dte: [the X.121 address we use in-house] x25_local_pid: 0301800 recvpktsize: 1024 sendpktsize: 1024 However, upon starting tsapd I'm greeted with 11:36am> /usr/local/etc/tsapd missing address for tsb_community "internet=volitans.morningstar.com+17002+2" starting listening on Internet=+102 I'm able to vt(1) to myself via TCP, but I'd like to use X.25 when possible, or use the appropriate TS-bridges when necessary. 1) How do I establish our one Internet-connected machine in the Internet ISODE community, for purposes of vt, ftam, and (perhaps most interesting) quipu participation? I hope to begin directory services (as Flying Fish) for our company. 2) How do I define the communities for our internal networks? 3) How do I make tsapd listen on our X.25 network? Any assistance would be appreciated. I've banged my head against this silly startup stuff for too long now...
