On the Apple side, you have to choose whether you want Appletalk to run on the
Localtalk or the Ethernet networks. Several Companies offer a bridge to tie
the two together, but none are free. Apple lets you have a bridge for a
LaserWriter, and it *is* free.
But to tie the localtalk network with the ethernet, I have not been able to do.
Localtalk being the localtalk adapters on the printer port.
I just moved all my stuff to my BSD machine and let the Mac connect to them.
Wish I could help more...
