  any OTHER? if you consider the linux box a router, then no, no others.
  our cisco 2501 router doesn't have any appletalk on it. (both the linux
  server and mac plug into the ethernet switch, so the cisco is out of the
  picture)

> shut down every mac on the network

  there's only 1 mac btw.

where?
