I am trying to get applications that use MacTCP to work on EtherTalk. When I use
the localtalk connection I have no problems.

It's only when I switch over to EtherTalk that I have problems. I use a Webster
Multiport Gateway to connect the LocaTalk macs onto the Ethernet segment that
other Mac are connected. The Ethernet segment is a subnet off a Class B address
connected to the rest of my network through a cisco router.

Because my localtalk macs work OK proves that IP gets through to the cisco and
beyond. My Multigate has been configured to talk EtherTalk Phase 2.0 justlike my
EtherTalk mac has been.

Can anyone offer a suggestion?
