Still no joy. By the way everything was working fine until the iBook OS was upraded from 10.2.4 to 10.4. >Sounds strange. First: If they are indeed G3s & G4s, upgrade to 9.2.2. >Second: You have to know the machine(s) password (if any), to log on as a user. Otherwise, you can only login as a >guest.

IP addresses are set manually (iBook 192.168.99.2; G3 192.168.99.3; G4 192.168.99.4) Can ping both OS 9 IP addresses from the iBook.
