Hello,

I am a novice to CAP. I got CAP 6.0, patch level 125, and I want to
install it on a SGI 4D35 running IRIX 4.0.2. If I understand the documentation
correctly, I can use the UAB mechanism to make my SGI speak EtherTalk phase 1
directly without having to have a Shive Fastpath or something similiar. If
that's wrong, forget about the rest of my posting and correct me.

We have a non-extended EtherTalk phase 2 network with net number 130-130,
named "MinGeo EtherTalk". The ethernet controller interface is called ec0
on my SGI, which is named "perm.geologie.uni-freiburg.de". Therefore, I 
constructed the following bridge_desc entry:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
perm.geologie.uni-freiburg.de   [elap,ec:0]     mkip    [130,MinGeo EtherTalk]
#
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, "getzones" will only report the "MinGeo EtherTalk" zone and
not about the other zones on the net. atlook will only report about the CAP
server programs that I start on my SGI but not about other AppleTalk entities
on the net. It seems that I have a AppleTalk network that is restricted to 
the SGI itsself. Of course, the SGI won't come up on the Chooser of the Macs.
The /etc/etalk.local file that uab writes looks like this:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

nisNet      	 0.130
nisNode     	4
asyncNet    	130.00

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
What is it what I missed ?

Thanks for any help,

  Dominik
