Once a connection is accepted a miniscule protocol identifies the client as either requesting a connection out onto an X.25 network, or for the daemon to listen for incoming X.25 connections on a particular X.25 address. .PP The \fItp0bridge\fP implements the transport class 0 protocol on top of TCP/IP using the protocol described in RFC\-1006. This is mapped into a suitable form for the X.25 network and vice-versa. .SH "DEBUG OPERATION" If \fItp0bridge\fR is started interactively, or if the `\-d' switch is given, then debug mode is entered. In this case, all logging activity is displayed on the user's terminal. In addition, the logging information is more verbose. .SH FILES .nf .ta \w'\*(EDisotailor 'u \*(EDisotailor Default values \*(EDservices TCP services database .re .fi .SH "SEE ALSO" services(5), isotailor(5) .SH AUTHOR Julian Onions, Nottingham University
