I use IBM OS/2 Extended Edition and IBM TCP/IP 1.0 on a PS/2.  My ethernet
packets are accepted by MIPS, Apollo, Prime, and IBM. They are also
accepted by SUN OS 4.03.  They are not accepted by SUN OS 4.1.

I would appreciate any help that netters can provide.  One hint, my
packets are the extended IEEE form.  Is there a switch in SUN OS 4.1 that
will cause these extended packets to be recognized?

Please respond via E-Mail.
Thanks.
