Guys,
Is anyone running a mail gateway between HECnet and the Internet?
Just asking out of interest, CHIMPY:: used to be able to gateway mail but the new ISP doesn't like the address formats so drops the outgoing mails..
A possible solution to that issue is not to relay via the ISP, but to have your local mail agent deliver directly to the recipient. That assumes the ISP doesn t block port 25, of course.

SGC:: is a level 1 router and SGC:: is an area router. SGC:: is functioning normally but SG1:: is not. Apparenty the TOY clock is not functioning. When that happens the default boot device reverts to the Ethernet port. In SG1::'s case, booting using the Ethernet port results in booting into the STRGTE:: cluster for maintenance purposes and no Multinet and no area router. I will try to install/configure Multinet in this variant sometime today - remotely.
Ouch, that sounds like a dead DS1287A...
As you probably know, the DS12887A is a drop-in replacement, and it is easily available (11,52 at Farnell).

Now I'm a little bit lost. I think a node must be configured as an Area router to be able to route between two areas via the multinet link.
There are two reasons why a node may have to be an area router:
1. If it needs to have other nodes that are in a different area as neighbors
2. If you want to be able to see the area routing tables
But if your neighbor is in the same area as you, the whole network is reachable to any node type (endnode, L1 router, area router). The L1 router doesn t have a map of the areas, but instead it sends all out-of-area traffic to the nearest L2 router which is represented in the L1 routing data by the entry for address 0.
The datalink type is not a factor here; Multinet is no different from any other point to point link in this respect.

I'm not sure the hotel administrator would be very happy in case you plug in some 780's :)
Enjoy your vacation. I'm using the bridge as a backup, so I'm fine. I simply wasn't completely sure the problem wasn't in my side of things. Until two weeks ago I was trying to hook into SG1 simultaneously from two of my machines, one of those was not configured as a router. As you can imagine, it didn't go very well ;)

Hello,
I don't have Steve's email, so I'm asking this here.
I've lost again connectivity to SG1 via Multinet UDP link. Since I have been doing... funny things at my side, I have checked the situation a little bit and I've found SG1 is broadcasting ENDNODE Hello packets (which I get through Johnny's bridge):
514 15.000758 19.41 DECNET-Phase-IV-end-node-Hello-packets DEC DNA 60 Routing control, Endnode Hello message
Now I'm a little bit lost. I think a node must be configured as an Area router to be able to route between two areas via the multinet link. Actually, SG1 is unreachable even thru Johnny's bridge, which probably means there is no area router configured for the area 19... I've tried to reach SG1 from MIM, and it is not reachable from there either, so (for one time) the problem won't be at my side ;)
Am I missing anything?
