Hi all,
I have an SE (and am hopefully going to acquire some more Macs in the
future, ranging from a Plus to maybe a beige G3). I want these to be on
my network (well, maybe not the Plus), along with a Windows machine and
several Unix systems (PC and Sun). My question is: what is the best way
of doing this? I have an Ethernet card in my SE, but it doesn't seem to
want to talk to my SMC 10/100 switch (or my 6400, which is running OS
8.6). Ideally, I'd like to have the FreeBSD server be a
Netatalk/Samba/NFS server for the entire network, but would this be
unfeasible, in terms of getting my older Macs to talk to the network? I
suppose I could try a PhoneNet, but then could I use the 6400 as a
bridge between the LocalTalk and Ethernet networks?
