Another solution is to run BetterTelnet or NCSA Telnet on the SE/30, each of which contains a single-user ftp server. You can then connect from the PC using one of several ftp clients. Caveat: lots of ftp clients don't work well with this method. I had the best luck with WS-ftp, a Win32 client. The same trick may work better in reverse: run an ftp server on the PC and connect to it using Fetch on the SE/30. If the PC is running Linux (or any other Unix), you can run netatalk, an AppleTalk server implementation that works very well. This is how I exchange files with my PC. You can also set up a print server that the SE/30 can print to, which can be very handy if your printer is connected directly to your PC. ./k -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
