Hello Stuart,
Yes we did try and in fact it revealed an important bug which is fixed. What we failed to
resolve, as I recall, was an apparent problem with some adjacencies yo-yoing up and down.
I too was having a similar problem at the time, but that turned out to be a bad switch I
had on my network, the adjacency is pretty solid now. I would be very happy to try again.
Please download the latest from CodePlex (route20.codeplex.com) and build it. Someone has
also told me it won t compile on FreeBSD so I am going to see if I can fix that too.
Regards
Rob

You'll have the same problem with Rob's DECnet router... And possibly other

I have just
downloaded the spec and will think about how easy it would be to add this to the router,
not that anyone other than me uses it :-(
Well, I tried pretty hard (with you) to get it working, but it really wasn't happy,
was it?
I'm game for some more diagnostics if you fancy?
