RocketTCP provides the necessary connection to MacTCP. MacTCP (2.0.6 - latest) should also be installed in all systems (I have a IIx with 2 rockets) MacTCP is in all three system folders. RocketTCP connects to the Host system folder on the mainboard.
My IP is 192.168.1.30 for that machine. .30 is shared by all three processors. : MacDNS runs on the IIx, HTTPD on the Rocket1, and FTPD on Rocket2. AppleShare, of course, is running on all three. woohoooo!
