Mark. A good way to "debug" the bridge is to send it SIGUSR1, upon which
it will dump to stdout a bunch of information.
Apart from that, you cannot see if the bridge is talking to your machine
or not, since the bridge is meant to be totally transparent from the
DECnet point of view.
One other thing: what is your ip address (or dns) and port number, so I
can check if my config file still have the right values...?

What should I be seeing on the bridge to indicate that BUBBLE is talking
to it correctly? I'm presuming when the link is up I should see a
routing node against ISA-0 on the above circuit list?

It gets better closer to NYC, by the time you're staying in a NJ hotel
you're getting closer to your home's settings.

Hello!
Jason, do what I do. Complain. The bird behind TWCNY may be something
of a fritter head but he does listen to complaints. I've been offered
that service as part of their triple play game, I turned it down
because I don't trust their technicians to understand things
concerning different operating systems play properly. AT&T now Covad
entirely does understand things up to a point. (Where that is, is
something for later.)

Also, drove around (in a cab) DC a bit last night, it really has the feeling of a New Rome architecturally. Very imposing, grandiose and believable.
Met a lovely guy, physicist working on some missile guidance systems etc, obviously never been anywhere awful like Algeria etc and he believed, sincerely, that America can bring peace, democracy and Disney movies to the whole world, i.e. that the Pax Americana is achievable, sort of a modern Pax Romana.
I wanted to point out that the Romans solved their Middle Eastern problems by nailing 5000 people to the walls of Jerusalem but didn't have the heart or how Carthage ended up :)
