Gerard,

Have you tried using Appletalk to share files via the Etherdock and a 
2300c? I had an etherdock that was only good for WWW, e-mail, and FTP 
download. Any large amount of data going out via Ethernet froze the Duo. 
According to radiusvintage.com, it might be true that therte are some 
etherdocks out there that work just fine with the 2300, though. Is yours 
one?

Also, there was software included with the etherdock, but it is only 
necessary for the advanced Vdeo options, which require an e-machines 
monitor and a special cable anyway.
