The 'broadcast' keyword turned out to be the problem. Thank you Kenny! I had it on my side, which is the dialing side, but I did not notice that it was missing on the remote side. I also didn't realize that the broadcast keyword handles both broadcasts AND multicasts. This is why my hellos were making it to his side, but not vice versa. Many, many thanks to all who contributed to this thread. I owe all of you lunch sometime. :-) If you all are in Denver sometime, look me up! heh heh.... Just don't show up all at once, my wallet wouldn't survive. John > Why don't you post the configs? Also send them to me @ [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > It sounds like a config problem.
