I'm not trying to do IP over the tunnel, I'm trying to do IP from my host to
SIMH and back.

The bridge only accepts decnet... If you look through the source, you can see how it sets up the pcap macro_ and expand it to inclde arp,rarp,ip....

I was able to get Johnny's bridge to work between my copy of SIMH and

Steve's side using a TAP interface.   So far so good.



Now I'm trying to get multinet to be able to talk to the host via the

TAP interfaces.   I've setup a second TAP interface, bridged the two

TAP interfaces and set IPs.   I cannot ping, however.



I've found stuff on the internet that leads me to believe that this works

correctly on at least Linux, but even doing things pretty much the same

way I am unable to get this to work on Solaris.



While I continue to search the internet looking for help with this, does

anyone have any experience with this sort of setup?



Thanks!
