A CAP Phase 2 question. I cannot tell from the README whether or not I
will be able to use Phase 2 with our set-up here. I was wondering if
anyone could tell me what the story was.

My net looks like this:

---------       Net A            ---------    Net B    ----------
| Sun w/|========================| IP    |=============|Gatorbox|
|CAP and|         ||             |Gateway|     ||      |        |
|atalkad|         ||             |       |     ||      ----------
---------         ||             ---------     ||            |
               ----------                 ----------     -----------
               |Ethernet|                 |Ethernet|     |LocalTalk|
               |  Macs  |                 |  Macs  |     |  Macs   |
               ----------                 ----------     -----------

Initially, the only thing I would want Phase 2 for would be to talk to the
Macs on Net A. We are using IPTalk to communicate between the GatorBox and
the CAP server, and using atalkad to set up the Gatorbox. The IP gateway
only talks IP. Eventually, the IP Gateway will be able to route AppleTalk
Phase 2, so the Gatorbox will be relagated to communicating with the
LocalTalk Macs, and the Ethernet Macs on Net A and Net B would use Phase 2
directly to the CAP server. But can I use Phase 2 now, or must I wait until
we get rid of IPTalk?

Thanks,
pr
