Can anyone direct me to the source of the appropriate literature? The Apple Programmer's and Developer's Association (APDA) will gladly sell you the AFP Engineering Technical Notes (114 pages) for $13.75, the AppleTalk Manager update (1 disk and 50 pages) for $13.50, Inside AppleTalk (1 disk and 200 pages) for $17.50, or several other communications and networking documents. It will also cost you $20 for one year's membership in APDA to entitle you to buy this stuff. They also have many other references on practically any topic you could think of. In general, APDA is the place to go for any sort of programming reference material. Their address is 290 SW 43rd St., Renton, WA 98055 and the phone number is (206) 251-6548.
