Hello All!
I've been reading bits from this list, getting ready for when I finally
load NetBSD onto an SE/30 that I have kicking around. There's been a
lot of talk that NetBSD doesn't support LocalTalk. The main function
for my SE/30 will be serving DNS's, and I don't have the dough to
splurge on a SCSI-Ethernet converter.
My Question: Will NetBSD be able to send TCP/IP information over
LocalTalk through the printer port?
Unrelated Question: If I were to hook up a dumb terminal using a DIN-8
to DB25/36 (don't know what size), tell NetBSD to talk to the modem
port, would I just have to have NetBSD running, and turn on the dumb
terminal?
Thanx in advance to all!
Chuck
