8 AppleTalk is the protocol that Apple computers can use to communicate
9 on a network. If your Linux box is connected to such a network and you
10 wish to connect to it, say Y. You will need to use the netatalk package
11 so that your Linux box can act as a print and file server for Macs as
12 well as access AppleTalk printers. Check out
13 <http://www.zettabyte.net/netatalk/> on the WWW for details.
14 EtherTalk is the name used for AppleTalk over Ethernet and the
15 cheaper and slower LocalTalk is AppleTalk over a proprietary Apple
16 network using serial links. EtherTalk and LocalTalk are fully
17 supported by Linux.
18
19 General information about how to connect Linux, Windows machines and
20 Macs is on the WWW at <http://www.eats.com/linux_mac_win.html>. The
21 NET-3-HOWTO, available from
22 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, contains valuable
23 information as well.

25 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be
26 called appletalk. You almost certainly want to compile it as a
27 module so you can restart your AppleTalk stack without rebooting
28 your machine. I hear that the GNU boycott of Apple is over, so
29 even politically correct people are allowed to say Y here.

35 AppleTalk is the protocol that Apple computers can use to communicate
36 on a network. If your Linux box is connected to such a network, and wish
37 to do IP over it, or you have a LocalTalk card and wish to use it to
38 connect to the AppleTalk network, say Y.

45 This allows you to use the AppleTalk PC card to connect to LocalTalk
46 networks. The card is also known as the Farallon PhoneNet PC card.
47 If you are in doubt, this card is the one with the 65C02 chip on it.
48 You also need version 1.3.3 or later of the netatalk package.
49 This driver is experimental, which means that it may not work.
50 See the file <file:Documentation/networking/ltpc.txt>.

57 networks. You also need version 1.3.3 or later of the netatalk
58 package. This driver is experimental, which means that it may not
59 work. This driver will only work if you choose "AppleTalk DDP"
60 networking support, above.

80 depends on DEV_APPLETALK && ATALK
81 ---help---
82 This allows IP networking for users who only have AppleTalk
83 networking available. This feature is experimental. With this
84 driver, you can encapsulate IP inside AppleTalk (e.g. if your Linux
85 box is stuck on an AppleTalk only network) or decapsulate (e.g. if
86 you want your Linux box to act as an Internet gateway for a zoo of
87 AppleTalk connected Macs). Please see the file
88 <file:Documentation/networking/ipddp.txt> for more information.
89
90 If you say Y here, the AppleTalk-IP support will be compiled into
91 the kernel. In this case, you can either use encapsulation or
92 decapsulation, but not both. With the following two questions, you
93 decide which one you want.
94
95 To compile the AppleTalk-IP support as a module, choose M here: the
96 module will be called ipddp.
97 In this case, you will be able to use both encapsulation and
98 decapsulation simultaneously, by loading two copies of the module
99 and specifying different values for the module option ipddp_mode.

104 help
105 If you say Y here, the AppleTalk-IP code will be able to encapsulate
106 IP packets inside AppleTalk frames; this is useful if your Linux box
107 is stuck on an AppleTalk network (which hopefully contains a
108 decapsulator somewhere). Please see
109 <file:Documentation/networking/ipddp.txt> for more information. If
110 you said Y to "AppleTalk-IP driver support" above and you say Y
111 here, then you cannot say Y to "AppleTalk-IP to IP Decapsulation
112 support", below.

121 Please see <file:Documentation/networking/ipddp.txt> for more
122 information. If you said Y to "AppleTalk-IP driver support" above
123 and you say Y here, then you cannot say Y to "IP to AppleTalk-IP
