All you need to do is put ethernet in them, (you can also do it with serial cables, BUT it is slow as hell.). Then you just setup TCPIP and appletalk on all of them. You will need a hub, and a router if you are going to setup all of them to share an internet connection. Networking is a lot easier on the mac system that anything else in my opinion. Give me some more details. What OS's are you running on each of them? What kind of ram does each one have, etc. Jon ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net!
