We are running vanilla 4.2BSD on Vaxen 11/780s.
We use DEC DR-11 Direct Memory Access hardware connected to an Ungermann-Bass
NIU-150 to implement TCP/IP over a broadband LAN.
One of our Vaxen (hostname 'tlog') has a ACC DH/LH  + modem connected to 
PSN 76 to implement milnet access.  A representative interior VAX is 'ms3'.

Visually, we have:
---------                       ---------
| ms3   |                       | tlog  |
|       |                       |       |---\/\/---PSN 76--------| milnet |
---|-----                       ---|----
   |                               |
------                          -------
|NIU  |				| NIU |
--|----				---|---
--|--------------------------------|---------------------
---------------------------------------------------------


My problem exists on hosts interior to 'tlog'
I have been unable to access the milnet directly from such hosts.
Can anyone help me out?  Also, what's the best documentation to use
to get a handle on this beast?


The ifconfig we use on ms3 is:

/etc/ifconfig ub0 -trailers arp 92.0.0.6

Here's a script(1) output of what I've tried:
