I'm about to replace my home LocalTalk network with ethernet. One of the
nodes is about 20m from the rest. 
I don't suppose that it's possible to simply snipp off the mini-DIN
connectors on the LocalTalk cable and replace them with RJ45's for 10-Base
T?

It would save me an awful lot of rewiring if this is possible. The original
cable is pukka Apple LocalTalk wire if that helps.

Thanks.

Gordon


One of these days I'm going to think of a decent sig line
