They were coming from an Ethernet host on the other side of an Ethernet-to-X.25 IP router connected to 26.12.0.122. The host, an AT&T 3B5, does indeed run AT&T SYS V Release 2.0.1 with the Wollongong TCP/IP. The reason you did not receive a direct reply is the reason that routed was turned on in the first place. It was thought that routed would solve the startup overhead of having to process route add commands for every gateway in the world. There obviously must be a better way - it's only because there's no definitive instructions that trial-and-error was used. If you know the correct way to solve the problem, please let me know, and I'll pass the word. --Frank
