[comp.sys.mac.misc] Compatibility of Mac/TCP

cwright@wpi.WPI.EDU (Charles R Wright) (12/29/90)

Please pardon me if this has been covered before.  I have a friend
with no news access who would like to know about the following:

If one is running AU/X on their Mac, and using ethernet media, will
network programs written "correctly" using Mac/TCP protocols, work on a
regular ole TCP ethernet?  (He will be the writer of the programs) Are
there tricks to this?  Is it possible with Macs running standard Mac
OS and Mac/TCP to do this?

I've embellished his question a bit, and I really have NO IDEA if this
is a can o' worms, or stupid, or no problem at all.  Any helpful
books or ftp sites would be appreciated.

Please respond directly by email as I don't often read these groups.
