Subject: [netatalk-admins] LocalTalk - possible?

hi,
According to the netatalk WWW pages, it's possible to extend netatlk so
that it runs over different network types, FDDI and PPP are given as the
examples on the WWW.
So, does anybody know how difficult it would be to support Localtalk
(i.e. Appletalk over a serial line). Specifically in my case to support
printing (filesharing I'm not worried about) on a PowerMac running Linux.
Neither PowerMac kernel supports locatalk printing yet which to me seems
silly given the huge number of localtalk printers out there.
Any thoughts on how difficult this is, and where I need to start.
Cheers
