   Greetings,
   
   I'm attempting to get the DSNLINK V2.2 software running on my DUNIX V4.0d
   systems. I have to proxy this thru two DUNIX V4.b/AltaVista Firewall 97
   systems to get to the Internet & DECompaq. The documentation on this is
   sparse - here is ALL the info on how to get DNSLINK traffic thru a
   firewall:
   
   "Configuring Firewalls to Use TCP/IP with DSNlink Applications
    
   Customers must configure their firewalls to permit communications between
   their systems and DIGITAL. The following is a list of TCP/IP ports used by
   DSNlink applications:
    
       Port Abbreviation Application
       2370 dsn_nsd Name Server Directory
       2372 dsn_mail DSNlink Mail
       2373 dsn_its Interactive Text Search
       2374 dsn_login Remote Login
       2375 dsn_netex Network Exerciser
       2376 dsn_sra Service Request Application
       2379 dsn_file File Copy
   
   That's it. Pretty dismal. DEC Support so far hasn't a clue about this.
   I've tried various combinations of proxy settings but to no avail. Has
   anyone out there successfully gotten DSNlink V2.2 thru either ONE or TWO
   firewalls? What did you do? I think if I got the proxy settings for one
   firewall I could figure out what I needed to do for the other one.
   
   Thanks....
