Does anyone
know if there is a free/share/money-ware program that
can turn a Mac into a DHCP server? For use on an older 68k Mac...
I use a Mac IIci, up and running 24/7 14 months.
What you need is called a router, but any old PC or Mac running a unix
variant with a couple network cards should work fine too.
The main reason to use a Mac as a router is to provide an IP over localtalk
to IP over ethernet gateway. It's easier to find an ethernet card for a
Mac II than a localtalk card for a PC.
I use a Mac IIci
running NetBSD. Check out this web site for details, and email me if you
need some network cards etc. cheap.
Does NetBSD support IP over localtalk? If so, I may switch over.
