The best simplest way would be to get an old low-end mac i.e. SE, SE30, LC,
LCII, etc and run either Appleshare 2 or Appleshare 3 file servers. (you
can often substitute a serial cable to use appletalk between just two
computers)
Development has progressed on booting an Apple II from Netatalk (under
Linux) but you would still need a bridge between ethernet and appletalk
cabling.
