I have a problem in connecting to AppleLink from my work computer.
I am using a Mac SE30 and hoping to be able to use the AUSTPAC (X25)
facilities available on a network SPARCServer 330 in place of the
messy business of dialling out (or trying in the case of our phone
system) and then connecting to the X25 network and thence to AL.

My problem is in filling in the gap in the diagram below.

X.25 network (AUSTPAC)
	|
	|
 The SUN with X.25 PAD
	|
     TCP/IP
	|
	|
     GatorBox
	|
    Localtalk
	|
 My Mac's serial port
	?
	?
	?
  AppleLink 6.0

I currently use MacTCP version of NCSA Telnet (2.3) to connect to the SUN
with no problem.

Thanks in advance for any help that you may be able to offer.

Please send replies by email.  Thanks again.

David
