Netlink is an old utility that basically lets AppleTalk work over a dialup connection. It can be used to play Marathon against another Netlink user over a modem (so technically it's not playing over the net, but it could give you more potential opponents than just your sister). I recommend you find an opponent in your local dialing area ;)

You can get Netlink at: http://macinsearch.com/infomac2/communication/atlk/netlink-remote-105b4.html

The documentation is pretty good. I'm not sure how well it works with newer Macs and MacOS; I've had trouble running it on my PowerBook under OS 9.1

: I was wondering, is there a patch or somthing that allows marathon to be
: played over the net? Cause ive only played it multiplayer a couple of
: times with my sis, and well, i could use a challenge :)
