Depends what network you're using and all that sort of stuff. We run
Macintoshes over IP networks using both EtherTalk and AppleTalk (i.e.
some Macs have Ether cards in them, others use LocalTalk and go 
through Kinetics FastPaths or Webster Multigates). Just using the
boggo standard MacTCP, you can make your Mac talk IP.
