Is anyone running MacIP on Localtalk behind an Internet Router?  The
question is whether or not you need a DDP-IP gateway (like KFP) between
a Mac running MacTCP on LocalTalk and an Ethernet.  Of course you need
one somewhere on the net, but can it be on the other side of an Internet
Router (perhaps serving some other LocalTalk network).  We have been
trying with some earlier versions of the InternetRouter Code and are
waiting for our shrink-wrapped version.  Does this work if the DDP-IP
gateway still talks AppleTalk Phase 1 or is Phase 2 required?  I've had
several people TELL me it can be done, but is anyone doing it?

Thanks.
