[comp.sys.mac.comm] help setting up async appletalk

ccgavin@uqvax.cc.uq.oz.au (02/15/91)

I would like opinions on the best way to set up a async appletalk service to a
remote Mac (singular). The configuration we have on campus is as below:


                   Multigate
      Ethernet         |
===========================
    |
Multigate
    |    
    |localtalk
    |
    |-laserwriter
    |
Mac-|-Mac(fileserver)
    |
Mac-|-Mac
    |                    async appletalk
Mac-|-Mac(Uni)--modem+++++++++++++++++++++++++++modem--Mac(home)
    |           ^\
Mac-|              \ proposed


The Mac(home) needs to be able to access the Mac(local) and Mac(fileserver) as
well as any laserwriters on the localtalk segment and laserwriters on other
localtalk segments.

Any solutions, both software and hardware would be welcome. Currently we have
been told that LIASON is capable of doing this. Could someone please confirm.


Many thanks, 
Gavin.......
