Adam,

I have used DLSW many times to connect SNA/token rings sites together.
It works great.
One piece of advice I can give when setting up the DLSW, use loopbacks to
form the DLSW "tunnel". This is especially useful if you have redundant
paths to the sites. The loopbacks are always up, so if a link goes down
the routing protocols find another way to the site and your connections
are still active. As I'm sure you know, SNA is very sensative to time
delays, using DLSW we saw increased reliability, and speed.

Hope this helps.
