If you're using NCU under Classic, you need to set it to use AppleTalk.
Then, make sure that AppleTalk is turned on in the Network preference under
OS X. On the Newton, when you insert your Ethernet card, you should get a
slip. On that slip should be a setting saying "Use card for AppleTalk" and
you should be set.
