Greetings Gary & David:
Over the weekend I reinstalled OS 9.1 onto my 6320 to see if
it'd make a difference in my two-way 6320-PB 190 problem and after
doing your suggestion and repeating the File Sharing routine on my
6320 all I got was a new pop-up panel stating "The User
Authentication Method required by this server can't be found. Please
check the AppleShare folder in the Extensions folder and try again."
What AppleShare folder??
As soon as I receive a OS 8.1 CD I'll re-install that in my
PB 190 to see if THAT makes any difference (since I installed 8.1
piecemeal on my PB 190 from backup floppies since it was a donated
machine sans lost master disks) though I doubt it because my PB 190
TO 6320 File Sharing path works great; it's the reverse that's giving
me the headaches!
Any hints?
Takes for the asprins,
James Greenidge
