As an addendum I fired up the RX2660 server running OpenVMS 8.4. This is TSR2 on 4.12. There are no adjacency up messages for this box and the bridge doesn't seem to communicate with it (no debugging generated). I can directory the remote FAL server directory and SET HOST between the two boxes which are on the same LAN - but I cannot see MIM:: from TSR2, only from SIMVAX:: when the adjacencies are up. Mark.
