I am interested in connecting my roommates MAC 7500 to
my intel Linux machine. I? have a 3C900 card with coax
running to his computer which has an ethernet transciever
connected to it to allow the coax conversion to ethernet.
This is all we have done. I?am not sure what to do in the
OS to get us connected.? Ideally, I? would like to be connected
to the internet via my ISP? and he access the internet
through my linux machine.
Please advise.

If you want the Mac to do TCP/IP, get a copy of MacTCP or Open
Transport (if your roomate has MacOS 7.5 or newer, he should already
have this)
If you want his Mac to access the internet through your linux box,
you'll probably have to set your system up for IP masquerading, since
it'll need to appear to the internet to be using the IP address assigned
to you Linux box.

PC1 ------------- PC2
1 -------------- 3
2 -------------- 6
3 -------------- 1
6 -------------- 2
Easy to do if your'e handy with a soldering iron and a multimeter.
Probably should cover the individual connections with black electricians
tape or other insulating material (heat shrink tubing).

OK, I want to do the same thing with my wife's LC-III. The Linux box
and the Apollos use 10Base2 TCP/IP. The LC-III has one available board
slot, but I want to use it for a video driver board for the spare
high-resolution analog monitor. Is there a way to interface the Mac's
SCSI port to 10Base2? I don't want to do it through the modem port, since
38400 baud isn't fast enough to do what I want. (I assume there's no such
thing as a single board that supports both an analog monitor and an
Ethernet port... noooo!)
All clues highly appreciated.

A cheaper option might be a Localtalk to Ethernet bridge, You get getQuote:> I don't want to do it through the modem port, since

1. Mac-linux ethernet peer-to-peer
If you find out how to make it a two-way street (with _only_ linux and
MAC) let me know. I know of netatalk, but that lets MAC read linux, not
the other way. The best I was able to accomplish was netatalk for one way
and ftp/http for the other. Not exactly desireable or effective.
