the program you wantw to use is Delivery. it is included with the other
little progs in the prelimbinaries dmg. Delivery is pretty easy to set
up, i have it set to use appletalk, and the newt set to use
appletalk/ethertalk. start the Delivery server [puch the button with
the arrows] and then connect from the newt normally. the dock window on
the newt will be blank, that's ok just use the Delivery window to
select and install packages. voila! wasn't so hard eh?
