On that note, can a Mac outfitted with an Ethernet card serve as an
Appletalk to Ethernet Bridge?  I just recently scored a couple
Ethernet adapters that fit in a Performa 405 (1 for me and one as
possible trade or sale fodder).  I am planning very soon testing them
out and seeing if I can get the Mac to become visible on my LAN.  This
is going to mean installing a second Ethernet adapter in my FreeSCO
router, as the Performa NIC only has a BNC connectors and the Windows
and Linux systems are networked through an AT&T StarLAN 10 hub using
Cat-5 cables).  But if I can get the Mac worked into the LAN, I'm
hoping to then be able to set up an AppleTalk connection between her
and the GS in order to indirectly make the GS network enabled.  Will
this work?
