al@19583 1 Appletalk protocol support
al@19583 2
al@19583 3 AppleTalk is the protocol that Apple computers can use to communicate on a
al@19583 4 network. If your Linux box is connected to such a network and you wish to
al@19583 5 connect to it, say Y. You will need to use the netatalk package so that your
al@19583 6 Linux box can act as a print and file server for Macs as well as access
al@19583 7 AppleTalk printers. Check out <http://www.zettabyte.net/netatalk/> on the WWW
al@19583 8 for details. EtherTalk is the name used for AppleTalk over Ethernet and the
al@19583 9 cheaper and slower LocalTalk is AppleTalk over a proprietary Apple network
al@19583 10 using serial links. EtherTalk and LocalTalk are fully supported by Linux.
