SAP broadcasts from a NT server to IRX 211

I have an Windows NT 3.51 server cabled to ether1 of an IRX 211. I set
the IPXNET to 00000030 and the IPXFRAME to ethernet_802.3 on ether1. I
installed the SAP agent on the NT server. NWlink indicates both ethernet
802.2 and 802.3 and an internal address of 00000020.

When I SHOW IPXROUTES on the IRX console, it shows both networks (20 &
30). SHOW SAP indicates nothing on ether1. Someone told me that NT SAP
broadcasts do not go thru IRX routers very well. Different socket or port
or something. Is there anyone out there that can help me ?

I'd appreciate an acknowledgment from someone at Livingston. I'm not
sure if my EMAILs are going thru. No one responded to the last three, I
have sent. Maybe I'm asking dumb questions?

Thanks

Steve
