Question: how does one configure a Mac "right"?
I have one Mac hooked up to one Linux PC, and when I do "-noddp" on Linux,
the Netatalk server doesn't show up on the Mac's browser list, so I was
under the assumption that browsing only works on AppleTalk. Is that wrong?
What is "right"? Should I be able to browse and see an IP only Netatalk box?
Where do I go to learn all this stuff? (And more: for instance,
seeding? How does it relate if I'm trying to go all IP? And where do I
learn about it at all, period?)
(I know TCP/IP, and am familiar with PCs and NetBIOS...but AppleTalk is
foreign to me. I've limped along so far, but I know there's gaping holes
here in my knowledge, and I want to know where to look.)
