Subject: [Duo2400] Networking for Dummies
I have four wonderful Macs and I want to network them. I used to do this
with a printer cable over Local Talk, but that wasn't too flexable as they
had to be right beside each other....
To work with I have:
-iMac DV SE 500/56.6/sys 9.04
-Duo 230 w/14.4/sys 7.5.1 (no Dock)
-Mac Classic/2400/sys 7.1 or 7.5
-Quadra 630 AV/28.8/sys 7.6.1 (no ethernet)
-Epson 740 USB/serial
-LaserWriter Select 360
-Farallon Phonet Adapter (1), with lots of phone cord.
-I also have two phone lines
What I basically want to do is have the Macs talk to each other and be able
to print off both printers. I was wondering if the Espon could be used as a
bridge between the iMac and the pre USB Macs if the iMac was connected via
USB and the pre USB Macs via serial to create a LocalTalk AppleTalk
network...
If not could the modems talk to each other with regular phone line without
an outside connection?
My final plead appears to be remote access via AppleShare IP. However as far
as I know, AppleShare IP first appered with system 7.6.1, so only the Quadra
and the iMac have that option.
Thanks
Dylan
