Mac SE/30 networking

[Mk.558]

I mean networking can be a lot simpler than you think. In System 7, you can create an alias of the server, and add it to your Startup Items folder. Let's say you run a Netatalk 4 server on your primary machine, which happens to run Linux. Perfect - you can literally have a direct connection from your Mac to your modern machine thanks to the wonderful work that the maintainers did for Netatalk 4. Every time you boot up your Mac it's automatically added to the desktop.

You use Windows or OS X? not a problem. Use VirtualBox to run a Linux VM instance to run a Netatalk server.

I've got plenty of options and… quite a bit of research to do (but that's the fun!)
