I read further last night and realized this...it will use AppleTalk, then
reconnect with TCP/IP if it can. I verified that using NetStat...

Thanks for the info!

Wow...sometimes, Apple does the Right Thing, eh? :)

I need to digest this some more...thanks for the info.

I had read through most of what was out there. Today, I found all sorts of
stuff on Open Transport and AppleShare at Apple's web site. There is still
some stuff missing, but I think it could be in the 25 meg SDK I d/l'ed. I
need to open that up and see what docs are in there.

Again, thanks for all the info.
