Harry's post has got it. One thing I noticed with my setup (G4 and a PB 180c/OS7.5.3) is that for OSX networking to work, you must use Open Transport networking on your Classic OS machine; so called "classic networking" may still be running, especially if you used it before and upgraded the OS from a previous version. There is a utility installed in an "extras" folder that will switch everything over to OT if you still have classic networking installed; it's called something like "Network Selector" (I can't check for sure because I' m charging a battery on the PB and don't want to wake it from sleep for a few more hours). One good method to check is to log on and go to Apple's website, it doesn' t display properly if OT isn't used.
