Hi all!

I am having some problems with NET/ROM and IP over NET/ROM....
 From my home QTH I can reach directly only one TheNet Node, called 
BO2:IR4BO-2, which is connected to other nodes.
If I manually connect to BO2:IR4BO-2 then I can connect easily any node. 
The problem arises when I configure NET/ROM to do so automatically...
This is the way I go:

nrparms -nodes IR4BO-2 + BO2 120 6 radio IR4BO-2                # my 
node/neighbour, the only one I can reach directly
nrparms -nodes IR4TCP-8 + '*' 90 6 radio IR4BO-2
nrparms -nodes IV3KZY-8 + '*' 90 6 radio IR4BO-2                # 2 nodes 
which I can connect manually

at this time I think I could connect both IR4TCP-8 and IV3KZY-8 by using 
"call netrom IR4TCP-8" or "call netrom IV3KZY-8" but the connection never 
happens... I can't figure why this is happening, if I directly connect 
IR4BO-2 and then issue a "c IV3KZY-8" or "c IR4TCP-8" all is ok...where am 
I wrong?

Another problem (is it connected in some way to the previous one?) arises 
when I try to use TCP/IP over this TheNet node (BO2:IR4BO-2).
My IP number (IZ4AFW) is: 44.134.193.80
Target IP number (IR4TCP) is: 44.134.192.252
My packets need to go through BO2:IR4BO-2, a TheNet node with no IP address.
So I tried:

nrparms -nodes IR4BO-2 + BO2 120 6 radio IR4BO-2                #to setup 
my neighbour/node
route add 44.134.192.252 nr0
arp -t netrom -s 44.134.192.252 IR4BO-2                 # as in AX-25 HOWTO

When I try to ping IR4TCP (44.134.192.252) I always get 100% packet loss 
[moreover with this config I can't get packets go out of my baycom modem].
The system configuration is Slackware 4.0, ax25-utils-2.1.42a, and a 1200 
bps baycom modem. Kernel 2.2.13

Please help me solving this annoying problem!
Thanks in advance, and all the best in the New Year!!
