I also use a combination of netatalk and samba on my linux file server;
it works incredibly well. It's also fairly easy to set up netatalk,
especially if you install it from a linux package. (.tgz, .deb, or
.rpm) It also makes it really simple sharing between the one Windoze
machine in the house and the classic macs.

an AppleTalk fileserver, it's free and works well.

I use a PC running Linux, samba and netatalk (that also shares the
broadband link). Since I never found a 100 Mbps ethernet board for a
SE or LC, I suppose a 10 or 10/100 Mbps hub will do. The 100 Mbps
machines may complain a bit, but it still works smoothly. Many
switches refuse to work with many 10 Mbps boards.

Hello,
I own some 68k Classic Macintoshes, and also a couple of Wintel
machines.
All five of them have a network adapter. I was wondering here if I
could
connect them all in a home network - what shall I use, knowing that
I'm a
newbie in home networks?
The two Wintel PCs have both Windows Xp and Linux installed; also
got a
SE/30 with Mac OS 7.5.1, a LCIII with 7.6.1, and a IIci, whose
operating
system is unknown to me, because its PSU is dead; I'm waiting for a
new one.
Any suggestions? Shall I use a hub, a switch, or what? Sharing
Internet
access is not a priority to me, what I wanted was a easy file
sharing, and
some sort of way of playing Strategic Conquest Plus via network (in
the
68k's) and sharing a printer (printing via the LCIII's serial port
is simply
slowwwwww)
Waiting for answers.
