Hi all,

I have here an interesting phenomenon:

Remote LocalTalk network connecting over a bridge to a second LocalTalk net.
Network 2 has a Fastpath Ethernet connection to a VAX.  Remote network uses
Pacerlink over bridge to try and connect to the VAX.  Connection is unstable,
file transfers rarely work and so on.  Speed is at 19.2 Kbaud.

We have tried:	Solana R-Servers	(worst overall)
				Liason				(much better)
				Shiva Telebridge	(best so far)

As you can see, we have used a variety of products and all fail with Pacer.
To me, this suggests a problem at the Pacer end, but we have no word on
that yet.

How about you people?  Any ideas?

BTW:	An error message from one file transfer was:  pcsrv -8 pasthru
		(or some such)
