Does your config.tel have a 'hardware=MacTCP' line?
It could be Telnet is grabbing the Ethernet driver away from MacTCP. 

Can no two TCP programs work, or just not Telnet and any other?

Is anyone familiar with MACAPP (or other languange) programming an
Apple SNAPS APPC interface to CICS APC MVS hosts?  Are any of you
using any of these products or interfaces?

I see that Apple sells a SNAps developer's kit and documentation as
well as a SNAps Gateway that should run on our token ring MACs.  This
seems to be the kit for doing APPC programming to an SNA host.

Any issue or advice  will be appreciated.

I would guess that you are having a file locking problem.  Under some
older versions of SunOS (and other vendors versions of nfs), the file
locking mechanism doesn't quite work.  

We were having problems similar to those you describe, until we
upgraded to 4.1.2.  Now things seems to work fine.

Network based file locking is handled by rpc.lockd, in case that

I've read Inside Macintosh (v 1-6) and Inside AppleTalk (rev 2), and haven't

Basically, I'd like to see how (externally) the OSI data-link layer looks.
I'm fairly familiar with LLAP and ELAP, and I'd imagine it differs some from
LLAP, both because of the lower speed rate and the different medium.

I am doing it as I type this message.  The main criteria is that both     
applications much be running a "MacTCP" version.  If running a non-MacTCP
version, the TCP/IP communication socket is taken and the other app will
not be able to connect.  I liken it to a "revolving door" when using MacTCP as
opposed to a hinged door.

The Macintosh system should not impact how the applications interact with
MacTCP.

I am pretty sure my question has been asked many times in this group.

I have a sparc 2 and a quadra 700, both are connected to the ethernet,
and a LaserWriter IIf.  I have two basic needs: share files between
the sparc and the quadra and use the printer for both machines.  I was
told CAP might be the best solution.  But do I have to get a special
hardware in order to use CAP?  Becasue I only have two machines at
this time, I do not want to spend $1000+ on a Gator or something like
that.  Any software, or cheap hardware solution to my problems?  

If there is a FAQ for this group, could someone send me a copy?  If
not, could someone kindly give me some suggestions?  Many thanks in

LocalTalk is rated at 230.4 Kbs whereas Ethernet is 10 Mbs. That's
roughly 50 times, but don't expect 50 times improvement. 2 to 3 times
is more like it. Where you will really see the benefit is when multiple
people are using the line. LocalTalk drags to a crawl when two or three
people are doing file transfers, but Ethernet won't even notice.

We are also in the process of converting to Ethernet. Not terribly cheap,
but a lot nicer for performance. It also has the side benefit of reducing
reliance on our Shiva FastPaths (which haven't been the most reliable
piece of network equipment I've worked with).

It does not, and so far as I know there is no intention to support it
in the near future. But I have no special information here.

As things stands, you need to use the IPTALK version, which requires
you to have a fastpath or gatorbox or something of the sort running
IPTALK that you can use to do the translations for you. If you're
hooking up to the campus network, this should not be a big problem. In
fact, you might want to talk to me more particularly about what you're
trying to do; I'm in charge (more or less) of setting up the
NeXTstations that are going to be in each of our computer clusters,
and they are going to be doing exactly what you want to be doing. In
addition, we're writing some user authentication code. Drop me a line.

A solution to this problem might be to build a MAC file system  in a single
UNIX file or on a dedicated disk accessed by its raw device name. This
wouldn't allow easy access to MAC files from UNIX which is a nice feature of
CAP but this might be offered as an alternate form of file system for aufs
with the existing form still available for UNIX files. 

A set of utilities would have to be written to read the MAC files from UNIX.

Now when trying to start everything up I get:

19:41:20 09/10/92  Ethernet address for le0 is 08:00:20:07:65:57
19:41:21 09/10/92  acquired node 2 on interface le0
Interface le0, zone CogSci, acquired node number 2/255.0
19:41:22 09/10/92  Failed to start ZIS listener!

Where should I be looking to fix things?  I tried seeding etalk.local
as follows:

interface   	"le0"
netRangeStart	56.64
netRangeEnd 	56.64
thisNet     	56.64
thisNode    	2
thisZone    	"CogSci"
bridgeNet   	56.64
bridgeNode  	
bridgeIP    	129.215.144.100
nisNet      	56.64
nisNode     	2
asyncNet    	 0.00
asyncZone   	""

but it just gets overwritten as:

interface   	"le0"
netRangeStart	 0.00
netRangeEnd 	255.254
thisNet     	255.00
thisNode    	2
thisZone    	"CogSci"
bridgeNet   	 0.00
bridgeNode  	0
bridgeIP    	127.0.0.1
nisNet      	255.00
nisNode     	2
asyncNet    	 0.00
asyncZone   	""

Thanks in advance
