CAP (UNIX APPLESHARE) UNDER A/UX

Has anyone ported CAP (Columbia's AppleTalk Package) to A/UX?
In particular, I am interested in running the AppleShare server
side to provide file storage for the Macs (running MacOS) we have
here in the office.  We have installed AppleTalk (Version 2.0) for
A/UX, which provides a programming interface to the AppleTalk
protocols, so it seems to me that the lower levels provided by
Apple could be used instead of the lower CAP protocols.

The gory details:  MacIIx running A/UX 1.1.1 (soon to be 2.0.1),
AppleTalk 2.0, Apple Ethernet card (REV K, 16 kbytes) (AppleTalk
running over builtin LocalTalk (serial) port), /usr/lib/mac/*
about to be upgraded to System 6.0.5.

Thanks for any replies,
