I have done a bit of research but can't really find a definitive answer. I currently have a 5500 with OS 9.1 on ethernet running personal file sharing and also running LocalTalk Bridge so my LocalTalk only macs and IIgs can get to the server via AppleTalk. The 5500 is also set up via TCP/IP so my newer macs can also get to the volume and also so that the 5500 can get to the internet.
I now want to also utilise this 5500 machine as a MacIP gateway/router so that localtalk only devices can get to the internet. I have seen various discussions about IPNetRouter but also some mentions of various versions of Open Transport being able to do Localtalk bridging as well as MacIP router but I have not been about to find any real specifics on this. In a nutshell I want the 5500 running 9.1 to be an AppleShare file server, MacIP router and localtalk to ethernet bridge. What should I be installing to do this. I have tried various hardware solution with no success so I figured I would give the software route a go given that I have the 5500 sitting there anyway. Any advise is appreciated. -oz390gta- -- ----- You received this message because you are a member of the Vintage Macs group.
