CAP problem: aarpd & atis only half-work

I am trying to get CAP going on my Sun SparcStation 1, running SunOS
4.1.2 -- can anyone help me get it going? I know this is a long message,
but I wanted to be as complete as possible. I would greatly appreciate
any responses! (I accidentally posted this to comp.sys.mac.comm last
night.)
I have CAP 6.0 pl126 and apparently compiled it all properly. We have a
GatorBox CS on the net too, and I have set all its settings to be
compatible with CAP. I am trying to install CAP with Native Ethertalk
Phase II so it can get our ethernetted/unixed HPIIIsi to show up in the
Macs' Choosers so our phonenetted/appletalked Macs can print to them
easily. I don't need papif or aufs since the Gatorbox takes care of
this. As far as I can tell, I only need aarpd, atis, and lwsrv (do I
need snitch? in any case I'm not getting that far).
The zone I want the printer to show up in (for now) is Duke.Ethernet.
The problem is I can't seem to get CAP to know what it is and find our
GatorBox. When I try to start things out from start-cap-servers with
aarpd le0 Duke.Ethernet
atis -l /var/log/atis.run
atis debug debug debug
I get
18:38:19 01/27/93 log file name /var/log/atis.run

and if I do "atis -dn" I get

Despite these problems, getzones works and atlook works. Yes, /etc/services
has had the new UDP range for a long time now. If I do "atis dump", the
/usr/tmp/nis.db file has 0 entries (it is just five lines of comments,
with the zone correctly noted). The /etc/etalk.local file seems correct
with the exception of the bridge info:
interface "le0"
netRangeStart 0.01
netRangeEnd 0.10
thisNet 0.01
thisNode 72
thisZone "Duke.Ethernet"
bridgeNet 0.06
bridgeNode 128
bridgeIP 127.0.0.1
nisNet 0.01
nisNode 72
asyncNet 0.00
asyncZone ""
This is despite the presence of /etc/atalk.local:
# mynet mynode myzone
1 72 Duke.Ethernet
# bridgenet bridgenode bridgeIP
19876 130 128.109.232.130
and the GatorBox setup with the same numbers.
If instead of the above aarpd call, if I turn on debugging with
aarpd -D 20 -l /var/log/aarpd.errs le0 Duke.Ethernet
it prints
20:14:26 01/27/93 log file name /var/log/aarpd.errs
Interface le0, zone Duke.Ethernet, acquired node number 72/255.0
and hangs. The log file reads

until finally there's a
Adopting 72/0.1
AARPD .... Running
So does anyone know what is going on here? Why does it only half-work?
What do I need to do to get it to going?
And while I have your attention, let me ask two more quick questions:
1) Instead of Duke.Ethernet, I would prefer for everything to be in
the Neuro.Ethernet zone. This is a new zone (a week old). Most of
the seed ports, mine included, broadcast that it is a valid zone, and
it shows up in the chooser. However, when I refer to it in the GB,
the atalk.local, etalk.local files, and in the call to aarpd, I get
(from aarpd)
Zone "Neuro.Ethernet" unknown, network default is "Duke.Ethernet"
Why can't I get this zone to work?
2) How do I get the ProcSets files for lwsrv?
Thanks immensely to anyone who has made it this far!!
