A few extra nuggets of information about the System on the Classic II, what you are using as 'server' to the Classic II's 'client', whether you are connecting into a LAN or directly via crossover cable, and whether you have the almost-obligatory 10Base-T hub between the Classic II and LAN or server will help us to make more-informed wild guesses on your behalf. Further nuggets about Asanté and Apple software installation will help the mix. Porter has distilled the requirement, but there are a few preliminary sandwiches needed before you can have a picnic.

I haven't used a Dayna adapter, but an Asanté EN/SC adapter serves me well as a portal for a Classic II into an ethernet LAN.
