Along a similar line, I've got cap (mostly) installed on a Unix box,
and I have another Mac running System 7.5. Now, the 7.5 machine has a
printer hanging off its localtalk network. I know that 7.5 allows
printer sharing, so I'm looking for a way to have cap share this
printer through the 7.5 Mac. However, it can only be on one network
(LocalTalk or EtherTalk) at a time. Does anybody know of a (cheap)
solution? Something like an AppleTalk router?
