Hello, 

we've been experiencing a problem here on our relatively small appletalk
internet. Actually, it has more or less solely been on the LocalTalk net
of the highest usage. One of our public labs. In this lab we have system
disks which offer the CITIMacIP.  The FastPath 4 feeding this lab
has 25 dynamic addresses it can allocate and hand out. Very frequently,
the IF driver, when loading, will not get a reply from the kinetics
in whatever time range it requests, and people and up getting the
"if_kat initialization failed" error a good part of the time. This
problem does not appear to be traffic related.

Does anyone out there have experience with this sort of problem? Or
any clues where I should begin looking?
