We'er currently running CAP5.0 with UAB. I only use papif to share printers between UNIX and Macintosh systems.

Now my question before moving to CAP6.0 is:

We have an UNGERMANN/BASS ACCESS/ONE with a MAXTALK card inside. This is something like an Kinetics FastPath ( I don't know the exact differences ). This card connects our LocalTalk segments with the Ethernet. 
Is it possible to run CAP6.0 in IPTalk mode or should I use Ethertalk mode or even UAB further on. I have only SUN's and PCs running PC/NFS in my domain and would be interested in the easiest way to handle with the problem.

Perhaps someone has any experience with UNGERMANN/BASS MAXTALK. I have not enough info about this card, as it is maintained by our central computer division. I can obtain more info if necessary.

Thanks in advance
