[ Get a look at this short O(n) DES decryption algorith
In the October '87 issue of Dr. Dobb's, a project is
presented to allow AppleTalk to be used over RS-232 lines.
This involved replacing the Appletalk Link Access Protocol
with an asynchonous protocol to handle the link level.
As suggested in the article, a very useful extension on
this project would be a "bridge" to route packets between a
machine on the other end of the RS-232 and the rest of an
Appletalk network.
I would like to know what others have attempted in the
way of using a Mac' as such a router. To me, this is a
project worth exploring, and I will welcome discussion via
email on seeing this idea to life.
