The fastest way is an all ethernet connection. We have tested many different configurations here, and any link that went through AppleTalk lost to the EtherNet ones. An appletalk-kineticsbox-ethernet is also slow since you have an AppleTalk bottleneck(I don't believe the kinetics box adds much to the delay). So, I think that the fastest way is to get an EtherTalk card(Apple's or Kinetics') and hook up to the mainframes ethernet. Mind you that are tests were done with an A/UX machine(no finder quitting delay) and MacII(with finder quitting and closing different files-delay) so you may have different results. -- Mahboud Zabetian buzz@phoenix.princeton.edu 183 Little Hall (609) 520-1271 Princeton University, Princeton, NJ 08544 (609) 734-7760 ****** Anyone need a soon-to-graduate hardware/software engineer? ********
