  Just out of curiosity, is there a way to have macs dialup a network
ppp connection on a FreeBSD box and route apple talk packets over it?  I think
Apple has a program the encapsulates appletalk packet into TCP/IP packets, but
I doubt it runs on the FreeBSD box.

  Anyone ever tried doing this before?
