The biggest problems with AppleTalk these days are that many switches and
routers block it (hubs do not), and OS X has very limited backward
compatibility for file sharing.
This can be a problem with wireless routers too.
In addition to Apple Airport gear, many Belkin and Asante WAPs
(Wireless Access Points) support AT (AppleTalk) wirelessly and wired.
I have separate issue I'd like to ask the list about.
Am I correct in my assumption that Tiger (10.4) won't do native AT
filesharing with OS9 machines?
I can cross-mount volumes between 9.1 and 10.3, (so it seems to be
set up correctly) but when I try to fileshare between 9.1 and a
machine running 10.4, I get an error message and the connection is
lost.
This apparent incompatibility is keeping at least one machine on
10.3, since I can use it as an intermediary to move files between 9
and 10.4.
