Your friend's situation is more common. System 7 includes personal
filesharing out of the box, which is straight appleshare (not
appleshare/ip). When OS X is on the same appletalk network, it can
generally use the shared System 7 drives just fine, with minimal settings
adjustments. Unfortunately, some ethernet switches and many wireless
devices block appletalk packets, which results in "X cannot access 7.1 at
all".
Can someone bounce me copies of digests 2066 and 2067, please. My ISP (Demon) lost them so I don't have a copy of the post to which Bryan replies.
As far as connecting from OS X to a System 7.1 peer to peer server goes, I can assure you that it does not work in my environment. This comprises (very summarised):
OS X Mac (10.3.4) connected to hub via utp Cheapo Netgear hub with 10Mbps utp and Thinwire interfaces Gatorbox via utp to hub; the Gatorbox is the only AppleTalk zone seeder SE/30 running enhanced System 7.1 connected to hub via Thinwire
The enhanced System 7.1 SE/30 can read/write files to the OS X Mac. The OS X Mac can see the SE/30 and I can attempt to mount volumes but none appear in the Finder. I'll try it again with the Gatorbox turned off some time; it is possible that the AppleTalk implementation in OS X does not work with my standard Gatorbox router.
