Inspired by the response to the last KIP/CAP problem... here's the
scenario:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
	Berkeley 4.2BSD
	68020 (ISI) Machine
	128.114.130.10
	CAP 4.0 w/pat5.shar		Conection to the Internet
		|				|
	---------------------------------------------- Ethernet (128.114.130.*)
	      |				   |		Subnetted class B net
           KFPS-2		      Berkeley 4.3BSD
   (w/ old "prompt" program)	      VAX 11/780 (running nameserver)
   KIP 0287 w/ gw.srec.5	      128.114.130.3/128.114.129.1
	      |				   |
   -------------------- AppleTalk    ----------------- Ethernet 129 Subnet
     |	       | ... 			|	|...   (128.114.129.*)
LaserWriter  Mac+		     Various BSD Unix machines...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The problems:

	- running telnet (both the one distributed with the Kbox and
	  the one that came with KIP) using a machine name, times out
	  attempting to connect to the nameserver on the VAX.
	- telneting to a machine on the 129 (or any other) subnet
	  times out (while I can connect to anywhere else I've tried
	  on the Internet).

Following are the configuration files:

--------- atalk.local ---------
1.130 10 TWILIGHT
1.130 220 128.114.130.220
-------------------------------

--------- atalkatab ---------
1.130	H	128.114.130.220	TWILIGHT	#applesci net
2.200	KC	128.114.130.220	TWILIGHT	#CIS at net
	I128.114.130.0	I128.114.130.3		#ipbroad ipname
	I128.114.130.10	I128.114.130.10		#ipdebug ipfile
	L0 L0 L0 L0	S0 S0			#ipother unused unused
	LX0		S2	S6		#flags ipstatic ipdynamic
	S2.200	S1.130	"TWILIGHT"		#atneta atnete zonea
------------------------------

--------- cisce.config ---------
* Config file for KFPS, KIP version, 10/86.
*
* A future version of the 'prompt' program will recognize
* a line containing a 'dot format' address and convert those
* four decimal byte values to four hex bytes(?)
*
* These bytes are ignored but must be left as placeholders: 
0000 0000 FF FF FF 00 000000 000000
* 00FF 0008 FFFFFF 00 000000 000000
* Gateway name (in this example, "cisce")
636973636500000000000000000000000000000000
* File name (in this example, "at-gw.srec.3"): 
61742D67772E737265632E35000000000000000000
* reserved (this field should be 00FF): 
00FF
*
* Start of 'mandatory' parameters, the minimum information that
* must be supplied for the gateway to begin operation.
*
* IP address of myself, 'ipaddr'
* 128.114.130.220
807282DC
* IP addr of admin host
* 128.114.130.1
8072820A
* IP addr of default route (nearest 'real' gateway)
* 128.114.130.3
80728203
* ethernet hardware addr of KFPS;
* 080089 is the Kinetics manufacturer code,
* remaining bytes are the serial number of your box.
080089 F00698
* next value is a flag, if it is '1234' the remainder 
* of this file is considered valid;  any other value means
* that the remaining parameters will be obtained from atalkad.
0000
--------------------------------

In atalkatab I have also tried using "N0   128.114.130.0" on the
1.130 line, it has the same behavior as the file given.  The good
news is that most everything else that we've tried works: papif
(after some serious playing around), efsd (right away), and telnet
for those of us who are comfortable with finding IP addresses.

Another question I had is where can I get the program that will
decode the ".hqx" formatted files that Mac executables seem to be
distributed in.
