I am currently trying to use a Gatorbox to connect a Localtalk
Phase II network with an Ethernet. My ultimate goal is to be
able to print from the Macs to a Unix machine.
I have set up the Gatorbox, and have installed CAP on a Sun 3/260.
I can run "atlook" and see any Macintosh Zone I request. I can
even use lwpr to print from the Sun to a Mac printer.
However, when I run atis and lwsrv I cannot "see" the printer on
the Mac side. I am not sure if even the NBP is working because if I run
atistest or lwsrv with the debug flags I get:
NBP nbp_timeout: 4 tick timeout on 251657516, 3 remain
NBP SndNBP: sending
etc...
My only theories are that Appletalk Phase II is not supported by CAP,
or my net numbers in atalk.local are wrong. However, neither explain why
I can print TO the Macs, but I can't register a Unix printer ON the Macs.
If anyone has successfully installed a sytem as described above I would
appreciate hearing from them. If anyone has any suggestions on what to try,
I would also like to hear from them. Thanks.
Please EMAIL all correspondance to the below address as I do not receive news.
