About the only thing I can think of is creating a separate zone to keep the
"naughty" PC and SNAP systems in their own little private hell that others
can get to, that the IIgs doesn't see by default. (I assume all your systems
are currently in one large AppleTalk zone ... ?) At least that gets it
on the network, even if it can't access the SNAP. Perhaps an intermediary
could accept data from it and pass it on to the SNAP on its behalf.
