The problem always used to be that you need somehow to encapsulate appletalk packets in TCP/IP packets in order for the Sun to see them. That's why all of these techniques need[ed] an AppleTalk-to-Ethernet bridge and didn't work with an ethernet card. Can I use MacTCP for that instead? That is, can I get an ethernet card and MacTCP, and use CAP? -Harry Plantinga planting@vax.cs.pitt.edu
