Just what is it and what is it's relationship to TCP/IP and NFS? I ask because I have an Ethernet system with TCP/IP and NFS on it (for the MS-DOS machines) and I know that someday I will need to connect the growing number of Macs to this network. So where does Ethertalk fit into my network? Maybe I can't use it? Thanks in advance... Dana Bourgeois @ cup.portal.com
