I have : a couple of surplus Dayna DL2000 isa cards. I'd like to build a router : for my son's elementary school until they can find the $ to buy a bunch : of Mac ethernet cards. I take it you mean the ISA card interfaces to LocalTalk type networking cable? I'd say (for freebsd anyway) that nothing like this has been developed. The 2.2-current kernel has appletalk code in it for the protocol stack, but as for drivers i think your stuck. I think there is a product called the Webster GatorBox that will let you route LocalTalk onto EtherNet(ie EtherTalk) which will talk to a FreeBSD 2.2-current box running netatalk fine (for print/file sharing).
