The only problem with testing using Appletalk to connect to NCU first, before trying any IP addresses, is the issue mentioned last digest where Appletalk/ethertalk (wireless) won't cross over to the wired side of many models of WAP.
There's the "thumb" package on unna somewhere, which will do a very basic "ping" of IP addresses, which can be useful.
