Well I don't know where I could point you look information.  However I can
tell you that Linux and Macs work great together.  In fact I'm doing it
right now with  7100-Linux-6100-MaxIIfx-SPARC network it works great!

All Mac's ar using system 7.5.3 (using Open Transport 1.1 Networking)
Linux box is running RH40
Sparc is SunOS 4.1.4
