CAP GLOSSARY CAP Columbia AppleTalk Package A freeware suite of programs that partially implement the AppleTalk protocol stack on a variety of UNIX machines. Includes an AFP 2.0 AppleShare Server, LaserWriter Spooler and lpr/lpd "input" filter. ETHERTALK AppleTalk protocols transmitted in specific type Ethernet packets. May be Phase 1 (Ethernet packets type 0x809B) or Phase 2 (IEEE 802.3 Ethernet packets with 0xAAAA03 802.2 header and 0x080007809B SNAP headers). CAP in "Native EtherTalk" mode uses AppleTalk in Ethernet. LOCALTALK AppleTalk protocols transmitted over twisted pair cable at 230.4Kbits/second. IPTALK IP encapsulated AppleTalk AppleTalk protocols transmitted within IP packets. Usually used with CAP on UNIX hosts that are unable to speak EtherTalk. Requires an external AppleTalk gateway to translate IPTalk to/from EtherTalk. UAB UNIX AppleTalk Bridge Phase 1 EtherTalk Router. Used to connect two EtherTalk networks together via Ethernet interfaces on a UNIX host. Also supports CAP processes via local UDP/IP loopback using modified IPTalk. Bundled with CAP. UAR UNIX AppleTalk Router Phase 1/Phase 2 EtherTalk Router for UNIX boxes. Also supports CAP and simple AppleTalk tunneling over IP networks. Not bundled with CAP. Available in two versions: freeware with basic features and shareware with extra features (supports ARNS clients, NBP registry). AUFS AppleTalk UNIX File Server UNIX based AppleShare server. Supports Apple Filing Protocol v 2.0. Nominated UNIX directories can be mounted as a AppleShare Volumes for storage of Mac files. LWSRV LaserWriter Server/Spooler UNIX based LaserWriter Spooler. Macintosh print jobs are spooled to the UNIX printer queue for subsequent printing via PAPIF or serially connected printer. PAPIF PAP Input Filter BSD lpd filter for sending print-jobs to AppleTalk connected printers. Can be used in a script for non-BSD printing systems. AARPD AARP Daemon UNIX process for handling AppleTalk Address Resolution Protocol (AARP) lookups. Stores ethernet hardware address/AppleTalk address mappings which are available to other CAP processes via RPC. Also handles updating of /etc/etalk.local. Used only with "Native EtherTalk". ATIS AppleTalk Information Server UNIX process for handling AppleTalk Name Binding Protocol (NBP) lookups and registrations, AppleTalk Echo Protocol (AEP) traffic and Routing Table Maintenance Protocol (RTMP) data. Sends RTMP router updates to AARPD via RPC. Other CAP processes register Chooser visible names with ATIS. GETZONES List AppleTalk zones for the local Internet. ATLOOK AppleTalk Lookup Lists AppleTalk NBP entities visible on the network. Also ATPINGER for sending Echo Protocol packets and ATLOOKLWS for LaserWriters. SNITCH UNIX InterPoll client Equivalent to Macintosh "Responder" program. Provides limited information about the CAP host to Mac InterPoll lookups.
