I’m looking to connect two 68k machines via AppleTalk to share files. Since there are just two of them, my understanding is that I can connect their modem or printer ports directly. But, there seem to be two kinds of cables: a crossover “printer” cable and a straight “serial” cable.
There are three things I’m wondering:
Thanks!
There are three things I’m wondering:
- Can the computer be damaged by using the wrong kind of cable? (I’m hoping not)
- Which is the right kind of cable? (I’m guessing crossover)
- Is there some way I can snoop on the traffic? (e.g. routing serial-to-USB through an intermediary machine)
Thanks!
