Problem in installation

[Anthony T C Tam <atctam@cs.hku.hk>]

Hi all,

I am trying to install an ATM interface to two linux boxes and connecting
them in back-to-back.  Because I am a newbie to both Linux and ATM, so I
tried to use the simplest method during the installation.  The ATM adapter
cards we are using is the FORE PCA200E, so I have to follow the
step-by-step page that created by Chris Leech at CWRU with minor modification.
1. The original OS version of my machines are 2.0.30 of Redhat-4.2 package,
but I replaced it with 2.0.29.
2. I am installing the Linux-ATM ver. 0.31 and PCA200E driver of ver. 0.2
together with the firmware image download from pca200e-driver site. 
3. During the setup, I have enabled both classical IP and LANE only.
4. Everything looks fine during the compilation and reboot.

Here comes the problem.  The pca200e driver can be load successfully in
both machines.  Then for machine 1, I have the following initialization
procedure
	srgd0% atmsigd -b -N -l mylog
	srgd0% atmaddr -a srgd0			/* I have set up /etc/hosts.atm */
	srgd0% atmarpd -b -l arplog
	srgd0% atmarp -c atm0
	srgd0% ifconfig atm0 202.45.128.29 up
	srgd0% route add -net 202.45.128.0 atm0
And I am assuming machine 1 is of the network side of the UNI and be the
ATMARP server.  With the similar procedure, I have set up machine 2.
	srgd1% atmsigd -b -l mylog
	srgd1% atmaddr -a srgd1			/* I have set up /etc/hosts.atm */
	srgd1% atmarpd -b -l arplog
	srgd1% atmarp -c atm0
	srgd1% ifconfig atm0 202.45.128.30 up
	srgd1% route add -net 202.45.128.0 atm0
	srgd1% atmarp -s 202.45.128.0 srgd0 arpsrv	/* from /etc/hosts.atm */

Everthing seems ok, no particular error message.  But when I try to use the
ping program to test the connection, no connection can be set up.  Then I
look at the log files of both machines.  The ATMARP daemon log file of
machine 1 looks ok, but for that of machine 2, I have
>atmarpd:ARPD: Linux ATM ARP, version 0.31
>atmarpd:IO: [2]connect: Network dropped connection because of reset
>atmarpd:IO: [2]connect: Network dropped connection because of reset
>atmarpd:IO: [2]connect: Network dropped connection because of reset
>atmarpd:IO: [2]connect: Network dropped connection because of reset
>atmarpd:IO: [2]connect: Network dropped connection because of reset

For the signal daemon log files of both machines, if the debug level is set
as 'warn', only this error message occurs
>atmsigd:SSCOP: layer management - error O "VT(CC)>=MaxCC".

But if the debug level is set as 'debug', more messages appear, for example
in machine 2,
			:

>atmsigd:SSCOP: Timer CC has expired
>atmsigd:SSCOP: SEND BGN(SQ=1,MR=30,len=0)
>atmsigd:IO: TO NET: ??? (0x00) CR 0x000101 (8 bytes)

>atmsigd:SIGD: freeing socket 0x1d7628@0x8076a00

As I don't know what is going wrong, could anybody give me some idea?
