If nothing else works, you can use FTP as the protocol. Turn on FTP sharing on your OS X machine and use an FTP client on the classic Mac. Access via IP address and your Mac OS X user name (the short version) and password.

I have used bobw's suggestion (i.e., the carlson stuff) successfully, to move files from OS 8.1 to OSX. I did have Scott's problem of the OSX server crashing on large files. Scott, I would like to know how you fixed this. Using FTP sounds like a good idea too. The only problem I have had is getting the permissions messed up on the transferred files, and I haven't figured out yet how to unlock them.

What version of OS-X are you using. I know that the latest versions of 10.4 will fail connection with the old os versions (pre-X). In such a case, use an old version of os-x and the connection should be stable.

You can usual take the harddrive out the old mac and put it (temporary) in the new mac or an external casing. This might also be an option.


Good luck, Kees
