Once upon a time Robert H. Ross shaped the electrons to say...
>The telco has installed a frame-relay connection with local loops to each
>location. Two bi-directional pvc's were configured as follows:
>location-a to location-b and location-b to location-c. Specifically note
>that there is no pvc from location-a to location-c.

This is a classic situation:

a c
\ /
\ /
\ /
b

>location-b and location-c should be able to address each other. It is also
>my intention that location-c local ethernet be a subnet of location-b's
>class-c local ethernet.

Buzz. Nope. You would have tro slice up the entire network. Now, location
B and location C can have subnets of the same network, but they'd have to
be equal size pieces. You can't do variable length subnet masks yet.

>I am looking for the specific settings to make in each of the three
>routers to accomplish the above.

Well, we can't give you a script of commands, we're not going to do all
the configuration.
