Re: Update: Win2k to IIgs

["Ken Tucker" <ktucker@NOSPAMiit.net>]

William,

Would you mind writing up a little baby FAQ on exactly what all you did to
get your IIgs, Mac, and Win2k networked? In particular, what version of
Win2k, what services, what ver of MacOS, kinds of cables/ports/etc. I'd like
to do the same thing and could probably figure it out after many hours of
work... But having a good FAQ/doc written by you, the networking genius
(grin) would be too awesome!

Thanks! ;)
Ken
