- Damn! I'll just go and tell my co-programmer that the DDP network
- program we spent the last few month writing is impossible (-;
-
- But seriously check out Inside Mac II-308..312 (OpenSkt, CloseSkt
- and WriteDDP), II-329..330 (writing a socket listener (yuk!)) and
- V-510..515 (the 'Preferred' AppleTalk interface). Oh, and be
- prepared for some assembly (yum!).
-
- Share and Enjoy.
