Subject: Ungerman Bass NIU's resolving names across cisco Router
Message-ID: <31375@boulder.Colorado.EDU>

We have many Ungerman Bass NIUs sitting on subnets.  The subnets are
connected by a cisco AGS router.  We have the NIUs configured to
resolve names using DNS.  We are running UB Netone Software Ver. 16.1.
Our AGS is running 8.0(13) -- soon to be 8.2(1).

Scenario:
	Person on PC connected by serial line to NIU wants to connect
	to printer/host connected by serial connection to a different
	NIU.

The problem:
	For names in the DNS db, all is well (the correct address is found).
	For names not in DNS:
		For two NIUs on the same subnet, all is well (the correct
						address is found.)
		For two NIUs not on same subnet, the name
			is not resolved to an address.

Whatever UB NIUs send out to resolve names is not getting passed by
the cisco box.


Has anyone faced this problem?  And more importantly, has anyone resolved
this problem?

Thanks in advance.
