Marshall, John asked about "the right way to map X onto OSI". I interpreted "right" in my answer as "correct in terms of OSI". I'll agree that there are research aspects to this. If you have an urgent need to run X over an OSI net, the mapping onto transport is a sensible short term fix. I do my work on TCP/IP and X.25(80) nets. With the possible exception of X.400, real OSI services are still a good way down the road. I see no reason to rush an X/OSI mapping. Steve
