What I have done for this type of situation is to leave one of my systems running OS 9 as a server. The older systems can all get to the OS 9 server, and the OS X boxes can get to it as well. I don't know if this changed with Tiger, but through Panther this solution worked great for me, with compacts (Plus, SE, SE/30), a Q840, and a bunch of others. I had all of the classic systems networked via PhoneNet, and I had a Beige G3 running OS 9 and LocalTalk Bridge. It worked great.
Is there someplace with some details on how to setup a Mac running 9 as a "server" for older classic Macs? What kinds of software does it need to run? How is it setup? How does it work with OS X Macs, etc?
