Attention MAC hardware types:

I'm in a small student group trying to develop a high speed, 
practical connection between a VAX and several MAC's.  We 
want to do remote login, file serving and maybe E-mail.
This is a general request for information with a couple of 
specific questions.

1) I need information about on using the MAC's serial port, 
particularly at very high speeds.  Has anyone used the serial port
with some type of external clocking signal to exceed the speed of
the internal baud rate generator?

2) Has anyone connected MAC's to an Ethernet supporting some type of
standard protocol like TCP/IP? (I am aware of Sumex's Applegate
hardware.)

3) Has anyone connected the MAC to a commercial terminal sever,
like the Bridge Communication's CS-1 server, using an RS-422
interface (high speed > 19.2 kbps)?
