Re: [MLUG - DISCUSSION] 1394 networking?

[Nimrod Levy <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

I is in fact possible to use IP across IEEE 1394.  I cannot remember if
the specs allow two devices to be connected directly or if you need a
hub of some sort between.  But you should be able to network like this
at up to 400Mb/s.

Yes, Linux supports this.
