Check that atalk.local refers to the IPTalk (KIP) network stuff in the KFP - Zone-name and network number must match. The top 3 IP bytes must match between the Suns and the KFP as well. The Sun's lower IP byte must equal its node number in atalk.local. Note that your Macs are using the EtherTalk I/F on the KFP, and are getting to the LW OK, so it's an IPTalk problem. Type "atlook AppleTalk". Typing "atlook *" will only look in the IPTalk zone. "*" in AppleSpeak means "here" not "everywhere". Get atis up. It forms the NBP server for the Sun. Aufs and lwsrc need it. Atistest will show up a new entry in atlook if it is working. Don't use a remote atis server - delete the 3rd line in atalk.local if you have it.
