I have a similar setup and we use PC MacLAN but not for Retrospect and I
truely don't belive you need that. Retrospect is much faster using the
TCP/IP option. Ofcourse, that depends on how your Internet connction is made.
We have static IP addresses and uses a fake IP adress while surfing, given
to us by our ISP. The AppleTalk alternative is really a poor one. Someone
measured the difference and posted it on thos list maybe a year ago saying
TCP/IP is as fast as 50 times faster that AppleShare...
