[comp.sys.mac.comm] Connecting by Modem to Network -- Question

Mark@mindlink.bc.ca (Mark Gray) (05/23/91)

I'm looking for a program that will allow me to connect a remote
Macintosh by modem to an AppleTalk network and allow the remote
computer to act just as if it were a normal node on the network (ie.,
share files and use printers).

I believe that Carbon Copy Mac and Timbuktu Remote will do the trick,
but I'm not sure.  Do you know if either of these programs will do the
job, or if not, is there a program that will do it?  I'd also be
interested in any specific comments you have on any of these
programs.

I would appreciate very much your replying directly to me and if
appropriate I'll post a summary of replies.  Thanks for your help.

Regards

Liason from Berkeley Systems will do this as I recall.

Actually, Liaison is from Farallon Computing, which is located in
Emeryville, CA -- not far from Berkeley :-).

Berkeley Systems is the maker of After Dark and several other fine
utilities.

All theses products are available from any well stocked Mac software store
or the usual mailorder places.
