I'm interested in doing the same thing.  I investigated Liaison, but think
it is really not the way to do it.  Liaison lets you use macs as bridges
(something I think the apple product does better).  You have to have the
correct level of Access Priviledges via the chooser to move across the
bridge.  
  Although I haven't yet found a product that will do this the way I Want,
I think some restrictive software changes need to be inacted in each machine.
That leaves a software solution, one easier to maintain.  The problems
inherant in restricting appletalk are many.  Remember that appletalk works
like a party line.  Everyone is connected and always listening, only when
your mac hears it's node number does it pass the packet on to the user.
  Anyone else have Ideas about this?
