Thanks, Doug, Now I've more questions. I have been unable to get my Molar (OS 9.1) and my B&W (OS X 10.1) to talk to each other. Apparently I'm actually going to have to buy a book. I've never had to do that with an Apple OS before. But networking in OS X is very different from the classic OS.
This is getting ridiculous. I also tried doing something more interesting than file sharing: IPNetrouter, since my Molar has a modem and my B&W doesn't. But it didn't work. Or hasn't yet. Since I haven't gotten File Sharing to work, I won't blame IPNetrouter... But I did use my network printer. It ran fine from my B&W. So the Ethernet LAN is working OK. 1. Any recommendations on a book for OS X? 2. With a B&W running at 400MHz, does it make sense to go to Panther? 3. Is networking any easier above X 10.1? Here's the deal. In OS X 10.1, I go to the Go pull-down, select Connect to Server, and there I've entered the IP address of my Molar. After 100 and some odd seconds, it times out: "No file services are available at the URL afp://67.xx.xxx.xxx.xxx. Try again later or try a different URL (server return error - 1)." When I switch to the Molar, select Chooser, and AppleShare, my B&W appears. But when I try to log on as a registered user (using an account I set up on OS X), I get this: "The connection to the server has unexpectedly broken." So, what's up? t -- Signwave Finder Mail 0.5a - http://www.signwave.co.uk/ -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
