If your Linux box is connected to such a network and you + wish to connect to it, say Y. You will need to use the netatalk package + so that your Linux box can act as a print and file server for Macs as + well as access AppleTalk printers. Check out + <http://www.zettabyte.net/netatalk/> on the WWW for details. + EtherTalk is the name used for AppleTalk over Ethernet and the + cheaper and slower LocalTalk is AppleTalk over a proprietary Apple + network using serial links. EtherTalk and LocalTalk are fully + supported by Linux. + + General information about how to connect Linux, Windows machines and + Macs is on the WWW at <http://www.eats.com/linux_mac_win.html>. The + NET-3-HOWTO, available from + <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, contains valuable + information as well. + + To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be + called appletalk. You almost certainly want to compile it as a + module so you can restart your AppleTalk stack without rebooting + your machine. I hear that the GNU boycott of Apple is over, so + even politically correct people are allowed to say Y here. + config DEV_APPLETALK bool "Appletalk interfaces support" depends on ATALK |
