Hi again, I have confirmed both tcp/ip and appletalk are set to ethernet. File sharing is on. Hard drive selected (whole thing). I don't think the problem is with the OS 9 machines as they share among themselves just fine. I can't seem to get access to the OS 10 iMac beyond seeing it in chooser, selecting it, and being asked for password, entering it, then getting the message "the connection to this server has been unexpectedly broken". I find the OS 10 permissions and multiple user stuff to be a huge pain in my ability to cope. Could it have something to do with those things? I am signed in as the administrator and my password is correct. Sharing is on. The hard drive is the selected file to share. I would be happy to mount the G3 laptop's hard drive on the OS 10 desktop (that is all I really want to do so I can back it up) but I can't get that far. Do you have any suggestions for doing that?
