Ok,we have no 'networking' forum (ahem,idea mayhaps?) so i amgoing to askmysilly boring question here. What is the Port # for appletalk Protocol? I know i should be able to find this out,but I have heard several different things, and from the *little* i have checked out my router, I cant figure it out. Also, Does Win2k support AppleTalk now? Someone said it does. I'm on a (ohapplegods pleaseforgiveme) PeeCee at schoolright now (so much for apple's education market :-P ) and want to jamto my tunes at school, hehehe.(well and transfer files important to the very survival of the human race) Thanks all.

This is a good question. I'm still not sure whether Win2k supports AppleTalk, though I have heard talk about it. What OS is the mac that you'll be connecting to? I know in 9.1, the file sharing panel has built-in AppleTalk over TCP/IP settings, and all you'd have to do is enter the given IP address in the remote machine. In older OS's, I believe you have to get a copy of AppleTalk IP or something similar to be able to do this.

according to apple's knowledgebase...

"From behind a network firewall or proxy server, some users may have difficulties mounting their iDisks. iTools uses the AppleTalk Filing Protocol (AFP), which operates on TCP port 548. If your firewall is blocking outbound connections on this port, then you will not be able to use iDisk. Unfortunately, it is not possible to configure iDisk to work through a HTTP or SOCKS proxy."

everything else I could find about appleshare had it as port 548.

There is a little more to networking over ethernet with appletalk - as in, you can connect to a server either via appletalk over IP, or via TCP/IP using the AFP protocol as above - thats appleshare (as far as I know it, anyhows).

As for pure AppleTalk over IP... no idea on whether that uses the same port or not, sorry!
