I was going to try to focus on the tailtalk/localtalk side of things to get the ImageWriter showing up and printing first. Being naïve I thought that maybe the ethernet side of things would reveal some fixes or direction on the localtalk side but as I'm reading and learning I suspect that isn't...

I tried your zip-support branch to see if my iPrint adapter would show any results, and it does not. I think the iPrint device is a pretty dumb router really intended for a basic network to bridge an old printer to ethernet. The fact that it also bridges AFP might have been "unsupported." I...

I was going to run another test by capturing from tailtalk - i added capture to the nbp-lookup - but I wanted to observe and capture what the 'real' devices were doing, too.

I pulled out my LCII and installed AppleTalk Peek on it. Is there a better program to capture the localtalk packets? I setup a localtalk only network between the ImageWriter, LCII and G3. I captured the NBP packets by using the chooser to browse for file servers & imagewriters, and captured...

The Imagewriter works just fine direct to the G3 with the iPrint off.

I really appreciate both of your work. This is an interesting thing to tinker with, debug and learn rust. I also thought it would be goofy to print from windows to the Imagewriter!

The iPrint device is pretty straightforward and has no configuration. Basically plug in a phonenet cable and ethernet and go. I use it to bridge various Macs and a IIgs to netatalk, even hopping over wifi. since the pi that runs netatalk is only on wifi right now. The TailTalk is connected to...

I double checked wireshark, and the nbp packets are not being re transmitted from phonenet to ethernet by the iPrint device. I suppose this could be a phase 1/2 thing.

The latest changes seem beneficial, however i'm still only seeing my powerbook G3 over localtalk and not the imagewriter and not my netatalk.

with the latest code & my windows ethernet changes i'm able to see my netatalk instance over ethernet, but still nothing over tashtalk. I'll do some more playing around soon.

The ImageWriter shows up now too. I should add that this is over ethernet on windows - localtalk still doesn't show everything. Printing isn't working yet either, it hangs querying printer status.

Hard-coding a destination network to '0' in the lookup packet looks to be a fix. Netatalk shows up in the results now. It is too early to make noise with the ImageWriter so I'll test that later. Now to consider how to handle such workarounds...

I pushed some changes to the windows-support branch on my fork. I also updated pap-print to enable tashtalk, based on the nbp-lookup code. I meant to put the pap changes on a separate branch but I forgot :/ This has been a nice side project to get familiar with rust & networking. I can...

I have more changes for windows that I'll commit to my fork, soon. I've added conditionals so it compiles cleanly on windows & mac. I'd be happy to accept any criticism on the code since I'm new to rust especially before I try to PR the changes What IDE & Debugger do you use? I'm trying Visual...

Rust question: Do you have suggestions or links on how I should separate windows-specific code? Unless I'm mistaken, pcap::Capture::from_device doesn't use the same device name as the mac_address_by_name method. But I have a workaround to lookup such things on windows.
