- I've got my Powerbook 100 hooked up to my IIsi via an Imagewriter II
- cable and it works pretty well. Since I didn't buy the Powerbook
- floppy the only way I can currently take stuff on or off the disk (not
- including a modem) is via this cable. One of these days I'll do it
- via SCSI but for now my whole little desktop network consists of these
- two machines.
-
- My question is, is there some way for the Powerbook to access the
- modem which is hooked up to the modem port of the IIsi over this
- network? Getting onto the hard disk seems easy enough with the built
- in localtalk, but is localtalk capable of sustaining a networked modem
- and if so, how?
