Are you able to obtain a network capture from your Kubuntu system.
If you can could you start the capture with both the sonic systems
bridge and IIgs off and end it after trying to connect to your Kubuntu
system.

Geoff,

You have delved into Appletalk internals a bit, haven't you? Can you confirm that the IIgs (and presumably the IIe Workstation card) only speak Phase 1 Appletalk?

I've now seen two different theories for Tony's problem:

1. IIgs speaks Phase 1 and Linux does not support it.

2. Bridge must advertise a zone (is this the same as supporting Phase 2? In other words, are zones something that were introduced with phase 2?).
