AppleTalk is the protocol that Apple computers can use to communicate
|
on a network. 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
|
NET3-4-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.

AppleTalk is the protocol that Apple computers can use to communicate
|
on a network. If your Linux box is connected to such a network, and wish
|
to do IP over it, or you have a LocalTalk card and wish to use it to
|
connect to the AppleTalk network, say Y.

config LTPC

depends on DEV_APPLETALK && (ISA || EISA) && ISA_DMA_API && VIRT_TO_BUS
|
help
|
This allows you to use the AppleTalk PC card to connect to LocalTalk
|
networks. The card is also known as the Farallon PhoneNet PC card.
|
If you are in doubt, this card is the one with the 65C02 chip on it.
|
You also need version 1.3.3 or later of the netatalk package.
|
This driver is experimental, which means that it may not work.
|
See the file <file:Documentation/networking/ltpc.txt>.

help
|
This allows you to use COPS AppleTalk cards to connect to LocalTalk
|
networks. You also need version 1.3.3 or later of the netatalk
|
package. This driver is experimental, which means that it may not
|
work. This driver will only work if you choose "AppleTalk DDP"
|
networking support, above.
|
Please read the file <file:Documentation/networking/cops.txt>.

tristate "Appletalk-IP driver support"
|
depends on DEV_APPLETALK && ATALK
|
---help---
|
This allows IP networking for users who only have AppleTalk
|
networking available. This feature is experimental. With this
|
driver, you can encapsulate IP inside AppleTalk (e.g. if your Linux
|
box is stuck on an AppleTalk only network) or decapsulate (e.g. if
|
you want your Linux box to act as an Internet gateway for a zoo of
|
AppleTalk connected Macs). Please see the file
|
<file:Documentation/networking/ipddp.txt> for more information.
|
|
If you say Y here, the AppleTalk-IP support will be compiled into
|
the kernel. In this case, you can either use encapsulation or
|
decapsulation, but not both. With the following two questions, you
|
decide which one you want.
|
|
To compile the AppleTalk-IP support as a module, choose M here: the
|
module will be called ipddp.
|
In this case, you will be able to use both encapsulation and
|
decapsulation simultaneously, by loading two copies of the module
|
and specifying different values for the module option ipddp_mode.
|
|
config IPDDP_ENCAP
|
bool "IP to Appletalk-IP Encapsulation support"
|
depends on IPDDP
|
help
|
If you say Y here, the AppleTalk-IP code will be able to encapsulate
|
IP packets inside AppleTalk frames; this is useful if your Linux box
|
is stuck on an AppleTalk network (which hopefully contains a
|
decapsulator somewhere). Please see
|
<file:Documentation/networking/ipddp.txt> for more information.
