You don't have to restart, but you may need to wait a few moments for the
AppleTalk network to identify all the machines on the network. Usually, this
will happen in about 30 seconds.

It certainly didn't happen in 30 seconds for me - I waited patiently for at
least a couple of minutes, even went away and did something else. I later

Just a couple of warnings about file sharing. First, the file sharing
control panel isn't all you need to set up properly. You also need to go to
the icon for the hard disc you want to share and do get info and then
sharing and set it to allow sharing. Also, your Appletalk panel needs to
be set

Folder from the old computer to the new. I just thought that sort of like
