[#]GlobalTalk admins – do you have an unusual setup?

I’m speaking specifically about the network architecture/configuration. Things like (but not limited to):

• Hardware AppleTalk routers

• Multiple hardware segments

• Emulated AIR hosts

• TashTalks and TashRouters

• CGNAT internet connections

• BlueSCSI (and other HD emulators)

• WiFi segments (or AIR running over WiFi)

Please send me a short description of what you’ve set up – I’d like to document some of these in my AIR manual addendum!

@europlus I suppose so…

• L2VPN to get past the terrible CGNAT malarky. It's an Intel Mac connecting to that over Wifi and then sharing it back out over Ethernet

• Original AirPort base station for Wifi to old PCMCIA PowerBooks

• LocalTalk section and Ethernet section with their own network numbers, but sharing the same zone name

• Set up an AppleTalk ImageWriter in CUPS on 10.4, then shared that to a 10.6 machine, then shared that as an AirPrint device to print from my iPhone
