If my ethernet address is: name at haas.gatech.edu, then I can connect to
any machine (or mail to any user) under gatech, like bob at hydra.gatech.edu,
but NOT to, say, bob at mentor.purdue.edu. IBM told our Georgia Tech coordinator
that this was an OS bug.

Interesting. My default gateway is set, as well as my nameserver.
The nameserver works fine for local connects. I cannot connect outside 
my domain even if I use the absolute address, bypassing the nameserver.

It sounds like you have your machine working, so I wonder if IBM has given us
bogus info. What updates have you applied?

Thanks.
