OK...I know I'm openning a can o' worms asking this here, but the "network"
such as it is today in Houston requires the use of netwrom (actually TheNet)
routing.  I need some help, 'cause I'm obviously not setting it up right.  We
have a couple of folks about 50 miles north of the main concentration of IP
activity who are just getting started, and another who's 45 miles southwest.
All of 'em are within the "local area" and we really want to talk to 'em.
I've set up NETROM routing to them and launched session after session, without
success.  Now:  When I do a peer-to-peer connect, I have no problem getting to
them and moving data.  When I launch an IP session, the bits fly off to the
first node in line, and apparently dissappear into the backbone (446.1) ether.

This is frustrating.  If someone's got suggestions, drop me a private E-mail
and let's talk about it.

Thanks, and 73,
Gerry Creager
