I still have a dozen OS9 macs running HC, working together all day with "send 
to program" chitChat.  20 years...

If I try this from LC, (OSX 10.4) I get "error -1701", likely some "failed to 
find file" sort of thing. The HC server machine is connected when I do this,
though that is unnecessary in the OS9 world, apple events working just fine 
with only a valid AppleTalk address.


I have seen little in either the forums or here about LC talking to LC on a 
network. Is this uncommon? When I first opened Revolution
years ago, it was the first thing I sought out, to make sure that at least that 
was still supported. Is it OSX to OS9? Is it me?


Are there better ways to create a clent/server or peer to peer network than 
this? I will probably never use LC merely as a front end, I will
always want to roll the whole thing from within.


Thanks...
