Hi,
 
I've been trying to get ISODE-6.0 to run over Sunlink OSI and have not been 
having much success so... I thought I'd try to see if the world can tell
me I'm doing wrong.  Firstly am I wrong in thinking that ISODE can be run
over the Sunlink OSI transport (TP4) rather then over TCP?

I've got a Sun running OS4.0.3 & Sunlink OSI 6.0 & ISODE-6.0.  I use the
sunlink.make & sunlink.h type configuration files for the compiles - and 
everything goes OK.  The tsapd & application start up & work fine ...BUT 
they are running over TCP and not Sunlink's TP4.  I've tried compiling 
without the TCPIP & SOCKETS switches but ran into problems...  

Also does anyone have a quick dissertation on how addressing in ISODE works?
I understand the basic concepts but what I don't understand is what is the
correlation between what's in the isoentities files and whats in the Sunlink
OSI hosts files, how do I set up other nodes running Sunlink OSI to talk to
me, etc?  Mind you since I'm not currently able to run over TP4 I guess I
should worry about this later...


Anyways does any one have any ideas about what I'm doing wrong?
