I think we will be losing our prime connection to USENEWS when mimsy loses it's connection (tempary) to the MILNET. Are there other connection out there on MILNET that we can connect to without going through an ARPA gateway? It's easer for use to poll using nntpxfer. Are other MILNET users haveing as much trouble as we are finding stable circuits to the Arpanet. We are geting 64% ping completion to our intended destination on Arpa (10.x.0.y) unless that host has also a Milnet connection (26.x.0.y). Is this a problem that will get better with time or am I doing something wrong with our routing table? I know I ask alot of dumb questions but I'm kinda dumb about this stuff. ==================================================================== Kermit Tensmeyer | Arinc (klt!arinc0) (26.2.0.88) (301) 266-2025 | -- ==================================================================== Kermit Tensmeyer | Arinc (klt!arinc0) (26.2.0.88) (301) 266-2025 |
