Yeah, me too.  From one node I get a socket error when I try to talk
to a printer daemon on another node.  And with rlogin I get
"network unreachable" to/from anything but the gateway node.
A little fiddling made that a timeout error instead.

Odd thing is, I had this working at one time.  Don't know what got
changed.  (And my notes are about as helpful as TFM.)

crp on my internet (ironically, much more sophisticated than rlogin!)
works without a hitch from anywhere to anywhere.

Help!
