Thanks much makmac, the problem does occur with different 2300's in
the docks. Turns out that since this is a non-hub arrangement
connecting the docked duo to my PB G3, appletalk must be switched
over reasonably simultaneously in order for the duo to see the
ethernet. Forgot where this pearl of wisdom came from. Not sure that
it is restricted to the DuoDock ethernet. At any rate, it's working.
