What are the capabilities of LocalTalk? Isn't that the network port used to connect the IIgs to printers?
On a IIgs, it can function as either an RS-232 compatible interface or LocalTalk (~400K bps.) network port. In the latter mode, and with the help of a LocalTalk <---> Ethernet bridge, one can access files from an Appletalk server. The free netatalk server supports this function on Linux (and many other Unices).
