Re: A TCP/IP Question:

["Peter Rittwage" <rittwage@hotmail.com>]

I guess I misunderstood your original intentions.  To my knowledge,
Marinetti will not translate TCP/IP over your Appletalk connection.  I don't
think you can do this with a GS, as it only speaks (or I should say GS/OS
only speaks) original Appletalk.  That feature, even on a Mac, is completely
separate from the Appletalk connection, even though it uses the same network
and wiring.

Someone will have to write the equivalent of MacTCP for GS/OS to do that.
