You should be able to do this.  Here at work we can located and fiddle with
a GatorBox over the ethernet cable (as far as I know).  I don't think that
you really need to move your machine to the LocalTalk net. Newsflash, you
have to do the initial setup over LocalTalk, then you can get to it from
ethernet.

On another note, you might want to take a look at a product that we announced
at InterOp, NFS/Share, which is an NFS client on a Mac.  Works real well
over a ethenet card such as the GatorCard, or any other the others.

Hope that helps.
