[comp.sys.mac.comm] Make LaserWriter on LocalTalk visible to Ethernet via Mac IIx?

simon@cs.ualberta.ca (Simon Tortike) (10/16/90)

We have a Mac IIx with an EtherNet card, and a LaserWriter II attached to the
LocalTalk port.  I need to make the LaserWriter visible to a unix machine
on the EtherNet, without actually installing a dedicated bridge.  I have
been told that Apple's AppleTalk-Ethernet Router will do this (installed on
Mac II), but wish for a cheaper solution (it is CDN$400).  For example, can
the product Liason do the same thing?

I will summarise any replies and repost them to this group. Thanks,
