Hi, we got the following problem: we are trying to connect from one side
of Europe to the other side, that is, from the Netherlands to Spain, via
X.25.

We reach the other machine (as the modem lights there flicker when we
try to make a connection), but the other machine refuses to connect to
us.  It seems like a configuration problem to me.  That is, a
configurations problem at the "Madrid" site.

Problem is: the guy in Madrid, their local sysadm, althoug very friendly, 
not only speaks English very bad, he also hardly knows what he is
doing.

So, dear netters, given an IBM RT, running AIX, with an IBM X.25 package
(no version numbers known) WHAT could be the names of the configuration
files and/or WHAT could be our problem. 
This in the hope that the guy in Madrid could fax us the files, and that
we from there on could decipher our problem.
Our only alternative is to make a trip to Madrid to edit (presumably)
one lousy configuration file.

PLEASE EMAIL REPLIES, as our site does not yet receive
comp.sys.ibm.pc.rt.  
And oh, yes, we tried all sorts of "userdata" fields.

Thank you very much in advance,
