...but it still won't work for the TCP/IP network he wants to connect 
to (in this case to run SMB filesharing and printing over). The only 
thing you can pump out the Localtalk serial port is Appletalk, and 
without an upstream device to tunnel IP through (a Gatorbox or 
equivalent), you're out of luck.

The original poster may want to look into a real Ethernet interface 
for his Duo, ie. some sort of dock.
