A weird thing... below is the config file, to get things mostly working..

Whats going on here, to the best of my abilities, is that eth2 gets its info
from a seeding router elsewhere.  Then, I seed eth1 network with a different
net range and some zones...

Well the odd thing is, atalkd kills with bind erros when the net range is
set to ANYTHING other than 200-299....

I don't see why that should be.  I'm totally missing the boat on this one.
I've been reading manuals all morning long.  Seems to me I should be able to
set that range to whatever I want...and I want a smaller
range...specifically, a range of 1, so all nodes in 200 range are valid, or
whatever...I just don't need so many addresses, you know, and I thought that
maybe, just maybe, it would magically fix my issue of ghosting services...

Any clues....?
