Yes, it is smb, but you need to be running the server on the mac to be able to allow windows to read the mac. PITA, but it works.

That's only true if you are using OS X and it only works one-way (Mac to Win). If you want to see make files on the PC you need to install SambaX and run a samba server on the mac. You can find info on how to do that in these forums. If you are using OS 9 you will need 3rd party software to...

This forum is a good place to start. Try searching under 'network' or 'sharing' windows.

Je regrette, Je ne connais pas beaucoup de français. Bientôt, j'espère! ~ J'ai une grenouille dans mon bidet!

Es tut mir leid, aber ich spreche kein Deutsch. Ich erlerne Französisch. ~ Mein Luftkissenfahrzueg ist mit Aale besetzt.

Isn't there an option when using the SWAT config to 'allow guest'? I think it is under GLOBALS or SHARE, or maybe both.

Actually it is easier to avoid all that 'root' and 'privileges' stuff and just do it booted in OS 9. Kinda cheating, but it avoids all the UNIX gobbledygook.

The work-around that I use is to install a fresh copy of OS X and then move over only your User, Library (the one at the root level), and the root level Applications folder (if you have stored anything in it). So far it has worked without issue. I have all my prefences in tact, etc. I will...

I don't think that was what Zenzefiloan meant, but I could be wrong... If you just want to erase and reformat the partition, you can do what djohnson suggested. In fact, you could do that right from OS X. If, on the other hand, you want to remove the partition so that it's space is added...

I don't have an answer for you, sorry. But I have read posts where other people were having no luck sharing printers and were told (correctly or incorrectly) that it wasn't possible. Probably due to Apple's spotty implementation of the SMB/CIFS protocol.

I just did a fresh install and they both work for me. I would check again to see if you can connect, as I read somewhere else where people were having trouble finding the iTunes radio stations.

The answer to your question [as stated] is yes, you can do it between 2 computers with 1 crossover cable. But to make it work the computer that is connected to the Internet would need a free Ethernet card (NIC) available for you to connect your computer. If you or your friend have a spare NIC...

64 Bit goes to 'eleven'... :D

See..., now was that so hard to admit? :D

ah..., sorry for the misunderstanding. I just tried pinging my network and a few internet sites and I am getting 100% return, so I don't have the symptom of ping-weirdness (to coin a phrase) of good connection but bad numbers that you are seeing. Mighty vexing, though.

I don't have an answer to your problem..., sorry. I just wanted to state that I have a G4 DP450 and I have had no problems with packet loss on my network or through the DSL line. I don't think the problem resides in the double processors - at least not by themselves.

Yep, you certainly can set up your iMac as a router. All you need to do is install a program like BrickHouse to set up a Firewall and enable NAT (IP Forwarding). There are a lot of instructions out there on how to set up IP Forwarding, just do a search on that term in the forums. Post if you...

I generally always wait at least a week before perfoming the firmware upgrades. Let other people find out the problems before potentially irreversible damage is done. Just think of the errors introduced in the last several updates: Loss of ability to use 3rd party processor upgrades; loss of...

Did you by any chance also install the firmware update? I only ask because I performed both security updates (10.1 and IE), but not the firmware, and I have seen no problems at all. You might also want to reboot while holding down the Command + S keys until you see text, and after the text...

Sorry about that..., it seems it is only on the FTP page. Go here and use the login: sneakypeek and the password: ireadthereadme.
