Yeah, which is what I'm attempting to do. I've got two TAP interfaces
bridged together. One SIMH talkes to, the other Solaris has an IP on.
Can't ping back and forth, however. :(
Do you have IP addresses set on both TAP interfaces? Does the Solaris bridging bridge everything or just ip? If it just bridge ip you might need to have IP addresses on both TAP interfaces for it to be happy. Check all the details you can find on how the bridge stuff works under Solaris.

Ok. So you need a nat-ed "virtual" network, with two interfaces. One for
the Solaris box, and one for the simh. And your Solaris system needs to
nat and route traffic to this virtual network.
Exactly.
I'm not sure if Solaris supports that or not, but perhaps someone else
knows. I haven't played with Solaris in 10 years, so I'm way too rusty
to say anything more specific here. If I had plenty of time, and a
Solaris machine to experiment on, I might be able to do this, but time
and a machine to crash is not something I have around here. :-)
It's changed a bit in the last 10 years as well. :-D

I've got a machine running simh. It's only got one ethernet interface on
it.
I need to give it a non-routable IP address so that I can do NAT on the host
that is running simh to give it internet access. So far I've been unable
to make that happen.
This guy did something similar on linux:
http://www.itsecuritygeek.com/itsgeek/comments/simh-networking/
But I can't get that to work for me.
Adding a second physical interface is not an option on this machine. Getting
a second IP is not an option on this machine. Just FYI before anyone
suggests that. :-D

However, I'm not entirely sure what Brian is trying to do.
simh - fine
multinet - fine
two TAP interfaces - between what?
Multinet talks tcp/ip, so if you get simh to talk through *one* tap
interface, you're done. Not sure what the second tap interface is for...

Now I'm trying to get multinet to be able to talk to the host via the

I've found stuff on the internet that leads me to believe that this works

I'm not trying to do IP over the tunnel, I'm trying to do IP from my host to

Hello,
Sometimes there seem to be issues with the licensing system at Montagar. The
guy behind the system is AFAIK doing the hobbyist maintenance in his spare
time.
I have also had to wait a couple of times for my licenses. You can send him
mail or just try the license fetching again.

Hello!
This is strange.... After the usual issues with getting the proper
authentication to enable logging into the User Group site for the User
Group number, I went ahead and told the hobbyist thing the number.
And this time after filling in the forms the data came back via return
e-mail. The first time, and even this time the site for the hobbyist
license simply said: "
Hobbyist Licensing
Your license request has been accepted. You will receive your license
via E-mail at hansolofalcon at att.net once processing has been
completed. Thanks!"
The first time, was shortly after the discussions regarding the Alpha
emulator. Nothing happened.... Now it did. It came back via return
e-mail within minutes.

Hello,
Your membership number and the other details asked on the license request form should be enough to get your licenses.
I have never (in over 10 years) had to log in anyplace to get my licenses.
