Re: Ethernet/token ring problem

[Larry Bolhuis <lbolhui@xxxxxxx>]

Kathreen,

  You did not give the subnet masks as assigned on each host.  This a a CRITICAL
piece that will certainly determine if routing can be done.  If the 150.150.x.x
devices (T/R and Ethernet) all use a 255.255.0.0 or 255.0.0.0 mask then the NT
box CAN NOT route because it thinks all devices are in the same network.  If 
they
all use 255.255.255.0 masks then you simply need to turn routing on under TCP/IP
properties in the attributes of the network.
