Greetings:

        I'm still on my trek of upgrading my PB-190 to the max, but this OS
8.1-9.1 File Sharing hangup has me stumped. I did every thing from
upgrading my 190 with AppleShare 3.8.6 and my 6320 with AppleShare 3.8.8
and following Apple's KnowledgeBase docs on file sharing to a "T", but no
dice. It follows to me that since I can access my OS 9.1 6320 from my OS
8.1 PB-190 but not visa versa (the 6320's icon shows up on the 190's
desktop alright), I might be missing some crucial inconspicuous basic file
from my OS 8.1 setup since that was installed by an incomplete assortment
of OS 8.1 backup floppies.

        Is there a listing somewhere of the rock-bottom basic files
required to run file sharing on 8.1? The Apple site doesn't offer such
(surprises me!). Since all I get from my 6320 are User Authorization errors
about nonexistent AppleShare folders in Extensions, I'm wondering whether
AppleShare 3.8.8 uses an user authorization technique that's unknown or
incompatible with AppleShare 3.8.6. My greatest fear is that file sharing
downstream (to 190 from 6320) between these different OSes and machines
isn't technically possible.

        Any Hints!

        JimWG
