Network Macs Computer
How would I network mac computers with PC-networked system. The PC are on the novell network. I want to share the printer and file with each other. There are 15 mac computers and 150 PCs on the same network. The PC works great with the network.. The macs can use the Internet connection, but it doesn't work with printer sharing and file sharing.. Any clue where I can go to fully network the mac computer?

Is your Novell network running IP or IPX?
If it is IPX, then you will need a Novell client for the Mac's to access the Novell network. |

Now, my knowledge of this is still rather remedial, but I know of two different instances that people were able to get mac's and pc's together on a network. The first group bought a linksys router and it did most of the work. The second group used appletalk for the MAC. However, let me delve more deeply into this, before you run off and buy appletalk.

Hau,
Here's a good Mac forum that should be able to answer your question: http://maccentral.macworld.com/ We have a Mac at the office and I use that site from time to time. Actually, I would be interested in finding out the answer to your question as I would like to do the same thing on a Novell network. I've just been too busy to get to it. WWD, Appltalk is a part of the Mac OS.

OOOOOH, I guess you can tell I don't know much about macs. That's why I told him that my knowledge was rather remedial. Thanks for the link, though. I'll research it myself tonight.
