Ahhhh. That would explain it.

Yeah, Cory wants Area IV.
Okay. I got him connected now.
Excellent.
It seems there are already nodes defined for area 32. Was it

assigned to someone?
Uh? I don't have any nodes in area 32. Where did you get those?
Also, Please set 32.1 to "FDR", Johnny!
Done.

This just begs the question - can I run multinet.c as a stand alone

QNA/UNA to a tun/tap device, connected multinet.c to the same device, could
I then talk to a remote VMS node?
Quite a hack, but it might be useful ...

It looks that way. Check out the code, it's part of the dnprogs package. Just one file.

Great. Now things are going to break all over the place. First rule of Network Stability Club - Don't talk about Network Stability.
