Connecting to a network

You can connect to shared disks on an AppleTalk or other Macintosh-
compatible network by using the Mac OS file sharing feature and a sharing
utility that comes with your PC Compatibility Card.

By installing the appropriate networking software, you can also connect your
computer to a PC-compatible network, such as a Novell Netware network.

For more information, see the section “Setting Up Your PC on a Network” in
Chapter 5, and also Appendix B, “Installing Network Client Software.”

Connecting a modem or other serial device

You can use a modem or other serial device connected to the Macintosh
serial port in the PC environment. Macintosh computers do not use the same
serial protocol that PCs use, so your modem or communications software
may require adjustment. For more information, see Chapter 5, “Setting Up
the PC Environment.”
