How about a bridge translating HECnet's area 1 to an area unused in Italian net and translating Italian area 1 to an unused area in HECnet? -- Regards, Rok . That's exactly what an ATG (Address Translation Gateway) does. Although I haven't used it over TCP/IP (Internet in this case). Maybe it would work if it is configured in either end of a GRE tunnel. Could be worth testing. Kari I have started a bit of work to create a user mode DECnet router and I am sure that this functionality could be added at some point. I will certainly consider it as I progress. But progress is not going to be quick. Regards Rob
