I can answer at least two of your questions.

Can a mac II be connected....
 		Yes, via the Apple EtherTalk card or the Kinetics EtherPort II,
	the Mac II can be directly connected to the EtherNet.  Via a Kinetics
	Fastpath, it can be connected to the EtherNet indirectly.  In both of
	these cases, there  are programs that will allow you to establish
	connections to to the sun for file transfer and terminal communication.
[ Begin PLUG]
	NCSA Telnet is one such program.  It is available free if you can FTP
	it from ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu (128.174.20.50), or for a handling fee of 
	US$20, we will send you a copy on disk with the printed manual.  Full
	source code (Aztec C) is available.
[ End PLUG]

	For purposes of file sharing, you should look into the AUFS portion
	of the CAP software which is available from columbia.

Can a diskless Mac II boot off of a Sun?
	At the moment, I have not tested this, so I can only give my 
	understanding of the AUX manuals.  Apple is supporting NFS under AUX,
	and they intend to have diskless AUX clients.  Sun's primary FS for
	diskless machines is also NFS (although they use another protocol
	for the root volume).  Therefore, I would assume that machines
	running AUX will eventually be able to boot off of Sun's.  NOTE:
	to boot AUX, you must run a MacOS application, therefore you are
	required to boot from floppy at the very least.

Can MacOS be run on an AUX machine?
	As previously stated, Macintosh's come up in MacOS and an application
	program boots AUX, therefore if that program is not run, you will
	be in MacOS.


Good Luck!
