I have what may or may not be a relief to the problem, if not
a solution.  Why not run Appletalk through both serial ports?  This way, you
could dedicate one port to exclusive local traffic (printing, file servers,
etc.), anduse the other for global traffic (global servers, company-wide
email, etc.)?  I realize this would not solve the node-limit problem, but
it could significantly reduce traffic without the overhead of bridges, and
still remain compatible with current Appletalk equiptment.
