I assume this is the right place for this question: I am trying to set up KIP on one of our Unix stations here to allow AppleTalk LANs around campus that are connected to our TCP/IP backbone to communicate with each other. The problem I am having is that some of the already existing zone names have spaces in them and I can't seem to specify a space in a zone name in the KIP configuration file. Does anyone know how to do this? Thank you, Barry

I think the "comms" group was meant for terminal-emulator stuff, but there's a lot of AppleTalk stuff spilling over. Anybody want to make a ruling, I'd rather read one group than two? > I am trying to set up KIP on one of our Unix stations here to allow > AppleTalk LANs around campus that are connected to our TCP/IP backbone > to communicate with each other. I thought "KIP" was a piece of code that ran on kboxes. Do you mean atalkad (and atalkatab)? > The problem I am having is that some of > the already existing zone names have spaces in them and I can't seem to > specify a space in a zone name in the KIP configuration file. Does > anyone know how to do this? If it is atalkad then you represent spaces in zone names in atalkatab as underscores and underscores as two underscores. It is fully documented (as good as it gets) in the usual "readme" file - atalkad.c :-). May the source be with you.
