Re: Appletalk to ethernet

[mojoehand <jgray@zianet.com>]

The information below is from a posting I found on the net. It tells
how to add AppleTalk to WinXP using files from a Win2000 installation.
I have not tested this myself. The post mentions printing, but doesn't
say whether this also works for file sharing.

-------------------------------

To install AppleTalk protocol to Windows XP
Required files: (Get them from any system running Windows 2000
Professional or Server)
netatlk.inf, sfmatalk.sys, sfmmon.dll, sfmatmsg.dll, sfmwshat.dll,
sfmpsprt.dll
If they can not be found you need to unhide hidden and system files.
Copy the files to their respective places:

C:WINDOWS(WINNT)\INF\netatlk.inf
C:WINDOWS(WINNT)\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\sfmatalk.sys
C:WINDOWS(WINNT)\SYSTEM32\sfmatmsg.dll
C:WINDOWS(WINNT)\SYSTEM32\sfmmon.dll
C:WINDOWS(WINNT)\SYSTEM32\sfmwshat.dll
C:WINDOWS(WINNT)\SYSTEM32\SPOOL\PRTPROCS\W32X86\sfmpsprt.dll

AppleTalk Protocol should now be available under the list of Protocols
you can add in Network Connections - Local Area Connections Properties

This is only good using AppleTalk printers attached to the network.
The AT printer will show up, if it's turned on, under Add Printer-
Local printer attached to this computer - create a new port -
AppleTalk Printing devices.
