Somewhat ironically, I acquire classic Mac software mainly to test in an emulator, not to run on actual Macs. Though I do develop software for old Macs, which I need transferred. All of my operative machines have ethernet. All of the gigabit-capable machines are on a gigabit switch. The G4s and a 100base-T PC have their own ethernet hub, and a third hub connects OldWorld Macs and the upstream router. To copy files between machines, I generally use the Freemount protocol and tools I developed. It's command-line based, but low-overhead (unlike File Sharing). If necessary, I'll manually create and expand a MacBinary+ archive (also via command line). A command-line environment in classic Mac OS is provided by MacRelix. https://www.v68k.org/advanced-mac-substitute/ https://www.macrelix.org/ https://www.freemount.org/ Josh -- -- ----- You received this message because you are a member of the Vintage Macs group.
