Hi DU Gurus,

 Yesterday I upgraded an Alpha to DU v4.0a. So far everything
 works ok except networking. I can reach hosts in our domain
 but can't reach hosts outside. I ran the ULTRIX-like netsetup
 command for setting up the network. I can nslookup hosts but
 can't seem to ping them. For example,

  # nslookup www.dec.com
 Server: dftsrv.gsfc.nasa.gov
 Address: 128.183.10.134

 Name: www.digital.com
 Address: 204.123.2.49
 Aliases: www.dec.com


 # ping 204.123.2.49
 PING 204.123.2.49 (204.123.2.49): 56 data bytes
 ping: sendto: Host is unreachable
 ping: wrote 204.123.2.49 64 chars, ret=-1
 ping: sendto: Host is unreachable
 ping: wrote 204.123.2.49 64 chars, ret=-1

 
 /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf haven't changed. I have about
 another dozen upgrades planned so I hope this is something
 simple that I'm overlooking or DU 4.x-centric that can be
 fixed easily.
