However, > PcMacLan, never would have guessed. ;) Daves a ugly, heavy program by comparison. I did forget fast but I thought I'd leave that for later. I burn files through appletalk from the pc to the FW burner on the 7300, the burners old now at x8 so I don't know how much faster I can go but it gives you a idea of what pcmaclan can do. Chooser--pc drive--find .iso--drop onto toast--burn Runs rings around netatalk. Linux is a million miles from a proper desktop replacement, that's not to say its not a million miles closer than last year. Printers, have you checked the Postscript Director utility in Miramar's support page? Internet Connection Sharing between Win98SE, 2000 or XP is easy. Full networking requires a 3rd party product like DAVE on the Mac or PC MacLAN on Windows. Or Windows NT Server or 2000 Server/Advanced Server which has Services For Macintosh. I don't know if Windows .NET server (now Windows Server 2003) has Services For Macintosh or not. Since OSX is built on BSD, Samba (SMB or Server Message Block) is available for it and networking with Windows works just like with BSD, Unix, Linux and any other non-Windows app that supports Samba/SMB. Not my words, too easy to read. :) I'm happy with my v7.2 MacLan, Win9x and a room full of macs. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
