I really don't know which list to send this to. I know many of you subscribe to most of the list so any help is appreciated.
I am trying to network my iMac to my Beige, 2 G3 PowerBooks, 6500 and a Q840av. One PowerBook and the Beige G3 are using 10.2.6 and the rest of the Macs are using 9.2.2. I am familiar with Sharing and Networking Macs over Ethernet as well as with Airport. What I am having trouble with is the fact that I am trying to set up the iMac so I can use my dial up modem setting as well as my Ethernet sharing settings without having to change either when I want to connect online or network. It seems that I must either choose PPP in the TCPIP panel to get online or choose Ethernet to network between computers. What am I missing here? I should be able to use one setting for both and not have to worry about changing. (In truth, the problem is with my wife and kids. They are not that understanding about switching back and forth and want me to leave it on one setting.) I mean, this is a iMac-it is made for this, right? Easy connecting and easy to network. If anyone can help me with some insight on this I would appreciate it. Thanks, Byron -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
