Well, OS 8.1 certainly lets me use AppleTalk for TCP/IP *iff* I have a MacIP server configured. I tried Googling up some information on that -- I have a StarMax 3000 I'd like to use as a bridge between the ethernet-less Powerbook 1400 I have and LAN -- but came up blank. Rather, I got tons of stuff, typically 2-3 years old or older, that normally says, "That was something Apple used to support," and "You can't use that any more." I dug up that Sustainable Softworks used to sell a product that did it here (http://www.sustworks.com/products/product_ipnr.html), but obviously that site's a bust now. Any easy way to make my Max a bridge to the net for my 1400 via the Printer port? Thanks! Ruffin Bailey -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
