Ethernet on Atari ST's (was Re: TCP/IP on eightbitters)

There is ethernet for any Atari ST. It's a modification of a printer-port interface for PC's. You build a simple card that propogates a couple of signals not available on the St's printer port through the cartridge slot. At the very least it is supported by MiNT and MiNTnet. If you need help with MiNT, let me know. The TCP/IP stack in MiNTnet is complete and has servers. I think you might even be able to run an Xserver to another station using it. I've got MiNT and MiNTnet on my Mega4 and have succeeded with PPP over an external modem. The only reason why I haven't built the ethernet modification is that the printerport ethernet interface costs something like $100.00 and I can't justify that yet.
