[comp.protocols.appletalk] Appleshare PC on Ethernet Cards

jsm@ss01.pppl.gov@ccc.nmfecc.gov (John Scott McCauley Jr.) (12/19/89)

Forgive me if this has been asked before.

I would like to run AppleShare PC on IBM PC's and PS/2's with Ethernet 
cards. I know I can buy Localtalk PC Cards + Appleshare PC. I'd like to
have just Ethernet cards.  Does Appleshare PC (or a compat product) run
on Ethernet Cards? Any phone numbers would be helpful.

If AppleShare PC only runs on Localtalk PC cards, and Appleshare PC comes
bundled with Localtalk PC cards, then why is Appleshare PC available
separately?

	Thanks,
		Scott

Situation: 5 PC XT's, 5 PS/2's, Macs, Mac File Server, Kbox, Unix Machines
running UMd Aufs.

Appleshare PC is listed as compatible on 3-COM's Ethernet boards
for the PC and PS/2 Microchannel computers.  Compatibility
for other vendors cards would have to be verified by the manfacterer.

Note that if you use Appleshare PC 2.0, you must use AppleTalk Phase 2
on your Ethernet network.
