Hi Dan that was a quick response thanks. I have the list page bookmark and have been checking it.
Well as you have I have one S-900 called #1 that has 2 80 GB ATA drives (1 WD and 1 Seagate) they are running on a Ahard ATA 66 card in PCI slot #4, USB 2 Port 2.0 card in slot #1. XLR8 400 Mhz G3 IBM 10X running at 500 Mhz very cool. Have 9.2.2 on 10 BB partition & 9.1 on the other in the WD drive. On the Seagate I formatted with Apple drive setup from 9.2.2 and then installed only 9.1 then ran XPostFacto 3.0a4 and installed Jaguar. Did the update's as far as 2.6 at the present. The #1 machine is running only ATA as per a comment from Will. Now on #2 S-900 I moved my Adaptec card from #1 into it and 2 hard drives. A SCSI IBM 4.2 GB with OS 9.2.2 installed and a 18 GB Seagate Barracuda SCSI and a 8 GB Seagate Barracuda SCSI. This unit has a USB2/Firewire card in PCI slot #1, IMS Micro Twin Turbo in Slot #2, Adaptec card in slot #3 , ATI Rage Video? in Slot #4. XLR8 card with 300 Mhz G3 running at 350 Mhz. Now I have the #2 set up with File sharing on and listed all the drives separately and did not set up a group as I had previous done. I I have a router on my cable modem and run from there to my office and also to my son's office. I then have a hub in my office which feeds the two machines and has other ports for me to use on the old standby C600. OK on #1 machine I got totally lost. When I opened the sharing panel in system preferences I turned on Personal File sharing and allowed that to be passed in the Firewall tab. Network panel in System preferences has Apple Talk turned on and TCP/IP is on and connected to the router and has an address. as does #2 machine. Now when I go to the Finder on #1 and go down to connect with server I get the panel which shows both #1 machine called RSB Associates and #2 which is S-900#2. I highlight S-900#2 and the I get the World drive image in the middle panel and up in the box at shows S-900#2. Down at the bottom in the address I get the following " afp://at//%20S-900%232:*. Now whether I double click on the drive image or enter the IP address down below I get the following message the Admin. Password box to connect as a registered user. I enter my password and click connect. I get Login failed, unknown user etc. now if I go back to the same panel to connect and type in the IP address at the bottom and click connect I get an error box up in the upper left corner which said connecting to the IP and below that "an error has occurred (error= -36). Now at one point I had a drop box show up on #2 machine which I have no need for . I want to be able to open the hard drives that are on #2 machine to use material load things on to them etc. I do 85% of my work on #1 machine. I do emails and ICQ on machine @2 along with checking my web pages in two different resolutions on the two 17" monitors that are hooked up to #2. One is set for 800x600 and the other is at 1152x870. As I said I work on #1 with a 19" monitor that is set at 1280x1024. Worst case is I could use the 2 GB ORB or my 40 GB USB Acom to move date back and forth but that would be a real time killer. Any help will as I said be appreciated. I have worked with Mac's for 10 years and this has me frustrated. Richard B. -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
