Question: how does one configure a Mac "right"?

I have one Mac hooked up to one Linux PC, and when I do "-noddp" on Linux, 
the Netatalk server doesn't show up on the Mac's browser list, so I was 
under the assumption that browsing only works on AppleTalk.  Is that wrong?

What is "right"?  Should I be able to browse and see an IP only Netatalk box?

Where do I go to learn all this stuff?  (And more: for instance, 
seeding?  How does it relate if I'm trying to go all IP?  And where do I 
learn about it at all, period?)

(I know TCP/IP, and am familiar with PCs and NetBIOS...but AppleTalk is 
foreign to me.  I've limped along so far, but I know there's gaping holes 
here in my knowledge, and I want to know where to look.)
