        !             4:     This program is used as a bridge for the OSI transport service.  It
        !             5:     is solves internetworking problems--if an application uses the OSI
        !             6:     transport service and runs in multiple environments (TP0/X.25,
        !             7:     TP4/CLNP, RFC1006/TCP), then the TSB can be used to achieve
        !             8:     interworking between instances of the application running in
        !             9:     different networks.
        !            10: 
        !            11:     For example, suppose you have a TCP/IP-based LAN.  Some of the hosts
        !            12:     on this LAN run RFC1006 and OSI applications on top of that.  One of
        !            13:     the hosts is connected to an X.25 network.  Normally, only the host
        !            14:     with the X.25 connection would be able to talk to hosts on the X.25
        !            15:     net, and vice-versa.  If the dual-homed host runs a TSB, then hosts
        !            16:     on the LAN running RFC1006 can talk to "pure" OSI hosts on the X.25
        !            17:     network, and vice-versa.
