I'm using a G4 (instead of a G5), and Jaguar (instead of Panther), and I'm not exactly sure what NetBSD is (are you still reading this?), but I can send and receive files from either machine using SharePoints. I went to the author's website recently to Paypal him some money (Sharepoints is Donationware), and saw that he had a new version for Panther. Sharepoints enables Appletalk on OS X machines, and I woyld assume it would work on a G5. >It's been suggested I need OpenTransport on the SE/30.
