Hi,
Does anyone know how to hook a Mac Plus up to DSL via a LocalTalk cable and another Mac? I've got the Plus running 7.0.1 and MacTCP with 4mbs RAM and a 20mb HD. It's sitting next to an SE/30 with 7.5.5 connected directly to a hub that's connected to a DSL router. All my Macs can see the Plus and the Plus can see all the other Macs. From what I've read, I need Apple's Internet Router on the SE/30 and the Plus would have it's gateway set to the SE/30s IP address, correct? Now would this allow me to run a server off the Plus and can I just assign it an IP? So if I put MacHTTP on it and open a port, let's say 81 can someone ping it from the outside world? Where do I get Apple's Internet Router? I've looked around for it but just found patches on the old software site. Is it an addon that comes with system 7.5.5?

You would need an additional piece of software for AIR that does MACIP routing. AIR is an AppleTalk router only without the add on. I don't recall off hand what that add on is called.

You can do it with IPNetRouter from www.sustworks.com.
