For OS9.2 TCP/IP must be set at configure:DHCP connect:ethernet; start file sharing then go to hard drive>get info>sharing.... tick share this item and its contents. Next set privilege for owner, user/group and everyone at read and write. This is how mine is set up, the G5 can be accessed from the G3, however if I want to access the G3 from the G5 I must have file sharing(G3 OS9.2) turned on. If you run into any problems you can contact me off list, however I am now catching a plane to warmer climes for a week regards matthew =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
