[comp.sys.mac.comm] MacX Questions

henry@chinet.chi.il.us (Henry C. Schmitt) (09/28/90)

I've read over Apple's liturature but I still have a few questions
about MacX:

1. Does it run under Finder/MultiFinder as well as A/UX, or are there
different versions for the two OS?  Or is it A/UX only?

2. If it runs under the Finder, does it require Ethernet, or can it be
run over a serial line as well (i.e. SL/IP or something else)?

Thanx for any help!

MacX runs under Finder or Multifinder. I'd assume you would run it under
A/UX running Multifinder.

And it doesn't require ethernet. It uses the comm toolbox, so I guess
there is some freedom there. It does work fine over appletalk though a
kenetics box.
