If it's MacIP routing you're looking for, consider a Gatorbox. These
are wonderful devices which cost a couple thousand when new and cost a
couple of sawbucks today used. There are usually several offered on
ebay each month.
They will also translate LPD protocol to the AppleTalk printing
protocol (PAP, I think?). So you can print from your NetBSD box to
that LaserWriter Select 360 gathering dust.
