Under SunLink X.25 Version 5.x it was possible to accept incoming calls on
any local address. However the applications provided by sun (x29d,
x25manager) listen only on the local address specified in the
corresponding x25params file. If you set the local address in that file to
0, they will listen for any call that arrives.  This causes a problem,
though, because now all programs will use this address 0 as the
originating address on outgoing calls.

Unless you use your own programs to replace x29d and x25manager (there are
better PD replacements for both of them) you will have to live with that
problem.

The best thing out of this is to upgrade to SunOS 4.0.3 and SunNet X.25
6.0 (formerly called SunLink X.25 Version 6.0).  With 6.0 X.121 addresses
are divided into DNIC, NTN and subaddress part, exactly what you need.
