There's that control panel... "Location" or "Location
Manager" or something (sorry, on OSX now). It's probably used more
often by laptop folks, but you can use it on a desktop, too, to very
easily change your tcp/ip, appletalk, printer, and other settings to
other pre-set (by you) combinations.
Also, regarding the original issue... I had a hub that was
apparently responsible for slow/stalled AppleTalk. It just sort of
happened all at once, and would only affect certain pairs of
machines, but swapping out the hub solved it completely. Weird.
