I've run across an interesting problem. I just established a SLIP connection
with Marble's Teleconnect to a local outfit. Everything works (well almost).
I have been having problems connecting to the remote LAN, but Internet
connections work just fine. Running netsat it looks like all traffic to
the remote LAN is going through my etherport not through the gateway. After
looking in the rc.boot there is a line setting the ethernet equal to the
internet address. I thought that they should be different? Any ideas about
a fix?

Any help appreciated!
Dean
