Is it possible and reasonable to boot a Mac+ from a server?
The Mac+'s are on a LocalTalk network, using either a Cayman 
Gatorbox or a Kinetics FastPath to act a gateway to a UNIX
system.  For the server end, we could use CAP with either
box or use NFS with the Gatorbox.

Does anyone know if there is either a hardware or software
solution.  Does either of the above configurations contain
the software solution?
