Among other things, yes.

Sorry. I didn't quite catch your drift... I have an HTTP server on the 
LCIII and use SSH to my iBook in emergencies. This is why I have DNS and 
DHCP and indeed TCP/IP at all. I also find that going from a 86k machine 
to OS X the name of my iBook does not show up in chooser, the fact I run 
TCP/IP allows me to mount it on my Quadra as it runs 8.1 which supports 
AppleTalk over IP (there ya go pickle - another reason to use 8.1 ;) ) 
and I can get my iBook up by IP address.
