(This is the second attempt to post this message. If they both worked, my apologies for the duplicate posting.)

I just installed a Racal Interlan Ethernet card in a Mac II which has 
MacTCP installed on it.  The card works fine for EtherTalk applications (Public Folder, printer  access, AppleShare, etc.) but there is a problem with TCP/IP applications.

We are unable to access any nodes outside our Class B subnet, i.e., NCSA 
Telnet works to any local UNIX hosts but not to any outside our Class B 
subnet and HyperFTP is unable to find addresses.

When we try to look up the address of an Internet node, we get an infinite 
wait from the MicroVax that is our domain name server. If we specify an IP 
address for a Telnet session, we get a message saying "No response from 
xx.xx.xx.xx".

All of these applications worked when the user was on LocalTalk, going 
through a FastPath. What do I need to change in the user's MacTCP 
configuration to make it work?
