We built a Seagate gateway and installed it here at DCIEM. All is well
with efs and with mac-ip software. Our problem is an interaction with
the laserWriter recently added to the appletalk subnet. The "Dec 85 Software
supplement" Appletalk release version40/41 seems to describe our 
problem as far as we had traced it - the internet problem with NBP lookup
when on a non-zero network number.

When tested with System 3.1 (AppleTalk driver 41) we still had no success
reaching the LaserWriter as long as Seagate box was broadcasting RTMP packets.
The Appletalk Version 40/41 release notes also mention a change to RTMP
to accomodate MPP acquisition of netnumber on startup. ?? Does this
require a change to the Seagate code. ?? Has anyone else seen/conquered this
problem.
