By tunneling, I mean that it would be encapsulating appletalk within IP packets for routing between distant/separate networks. (Joining two sites of a company, for example.) UAR will allow you to specify remote sites to setup tunnels with, along with handling the local appletalk seed (or non seed) routing.. (I run netatalk and/or CAP right now.. they both work fine, but neither handle tunnels.. UAR + CAP handles it though..) thanks, paul
