Yeah but the first thing I noticed was the absence of mention of the AppleTalk Control Panel.  (Sorry this whole time I've been trying to get a browser for 7.6.1 via downloading from 8.5 - but all of System7Today's browsers except IE5 seem to be bad .sit/.hqx.  That may be my machine, always hard to tell.)

So what I described above should work assuming the DHCP server can assign an IP address.  I've also never had that problem - including with very complicated setups that didn't work (but still correctly assigned IP).
