You'd want to do it using localtalk. That'd take software on each end which
could understand TCP packets encapsulated in Appletalk packets. Apple's
IP Gateway package is the thing to use on the Mac side I'm pretty sure.
For the IIgs, dunno if there is such a thing. Then it would of course take
a telnet client app.
