I currently have CAP 6.0 patch level 126 installed on our Sun 690 MP running
Sun OS 4.1.3.  I am using the native EtherTalk mode, and providing
AppleTalk services via aufs, lwsrv, and papif.

I now would like to use this computer to route AppleTalk traffic across
it's 2 ethernet interfaces.  I've read the CAP documentation, and made
an initial stab at this, but so far it's been a dismal failure.

Our topography:


                       ___________
 EtherTalk Zone "A"    |         |	EtherTalk Zone "B"
------|----------------|Sun 690MP|------------|--------------
      |                -----------    	      |       
 ------------				------------
 |ARA server|				| FastPath |
 |	    |				|	   |
 ------------				------------

My questions:
1. Can I use only aarpd to do this, or must I also install uab?
2. Can I have both uab and aarpd both running at the same time?  I use
   native EtherTalk since zone "B" is EtherTalk Phase II.
3. If not, do I have to abandon the native EtherTalk mode and rebuild
   everything using the uab mode?
4. If so, does the following bridge_desc file look OK:

	picasso.mmwb.ucsf.edu   [elap,le:0]     mkip    [0]
	picasso.mmwb.ucsf.edu   [elap,le:1]     mkip    [10860,A]

5. Any other gotchas I should be aware of?
6. Will Charles and Di ever patch things up for the kid's sake?


The FAQ states that uab is only Phase I, but in the question above that
statement it implies that uab can route between Phase II nets.

Thanks for any pointers you can give me,
