I believe another solution that was mentioned was to put the line bcsinc rt1 somewhere where it would be input to pathalias. The problem occurs because each of these sites lists the other as a terminal link (using the <> notation). Apparently pathalias gets caught in a loop trying to route through there. Adding the above line give an additional path between these systems. It defaults to a cost of POLLED one way, DEAD the other, so it probably won't be used, but it gets pathalias out if its bind. -- Terry Poot The McCall Pattern Company (uucp: ...!rutgers!ksuvax1!mccall!tp) 615 McCall Road (800)255-2762, in KS (913)776-4041 Manhattan, KS 66502, USA
