With the introduction of 10.4 Apple disabled file transfer and sharing over the older version of afp that used AppleTalk either over twisted pair localtalk or AppleTalk over ethernet. It made it impossible to connect OS neXt to systems earlier than OS 8.5 without purchasing proprietary software from OpenDoor. In OS 8 or 9 and possibly OS 10.2 you have to enable AppleTalk over IP, internet protocol. It's a deliberate selection in a preference somewhere that has to be set and may not be the default in OS 10.2. Personally I have discovered the scp capability of Openssh which is delivered with essentially all versions of OS neXt. It works with a whole lot of boxes. But you do have to use a command line or a hand-written AppleScript. If scp doesn't work, think OS 7, curl will but it's not very secure. -- --> From the U S of A, the only socialist country that refuses to admit it. <-- --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
