[comp.sys.mac.comm] Can CAP use AppleTalk Phase 2?

I have been trying to setup a GatorBox to use the CAP (Columbia
AppleTalk Protocol) application Aufs (Appleshare Unix File Server).
Although it appears that everything is set up correctly, I do not see
a file server in the AppleTalk Zone (the KIP zone) as expected.

I now believe the problem is that I have configured the GatorBox to use
AppleTalk Phase 2 only.  Our campus is attempting to switch over to
a Phase 2 only network.  However, CAP must be working in the AppleTalk
Phase 1, since the last version is from 1988.

What I am trying to understand is whether the CAP could also use Phase 2.
Or, put another way, is a Phase 2 only net downwardly compatible with 
Phase 1 s/w.
