emulating DLSW with NETBeui

Hi All,

I'm a bit confused (might be the hair color.) anyways, once I get two
computers running NetBeui - how do I make them communicate - ie.e
what types of commands or NetBios names must I setup on the computers. Is there
any good links to help me with setting this up to learn more about DLSW?

Also, can I test source route translational bridging (SR/TLB) this way? I have
the following setup, but I do not know how to test if it works, and I am
seeing no frames
forwarded:

R4 ---- Ethernet--- R1 ---- Token Ring --- R6---Token Ring --- R2 ---
Ethernet ---- R6

R6 is a SRB bridge. R1 and R2 are setup for SR/TLB. I can ping from R2 to
R1, so I know
that SRB is working fine across the Token Ring. But I wanted to test the
SR/TLB portion.
Any ideas how I could use NetBeui to do that? I'm just getting started on
the IBM
SR/TLB and DLSW stuff so any pointers to how to setup test labs would be
great. I've
read back through lots of emails on this list, but I still haven't figured
out how to set
up the NetBeui to properly test DLSW or SR/TLB.

another problem I am having, if I turn on debug source bridge on R2 and R1,
( I have also issued the command "no source bridge 3 transparent
fastswitch") I get no output to my screen. When I do a show source it still
shows local fastswitched under the Explorers part:

Local Interfaces: receive transmit
              srn bn trn r p s n max hops cnt cnt drops
To0 1 1 3 * * b 7 7 7 0 0 0

Global RSRB Parameters:
  TCP Queue Length maximum: 100

    Maximum output TCP queue length, per peer: 100
   Rings:

    bn: 1 rn: 10 locvrt ma: 4008.de3c.9099 Bridge-group 4 fwd: 0

Explorers: ------- input ------- ------- output -------

   Local: fastswitched 62 flushed 0 max Bps 38400

          rings inputs bursts throttles output drops
            To0 0 0 0 0

Thanks,

Julie Ann
