Okay, it's been a couple of years since I first saw it, but I'm finally wondering -- what the hell is the "network" icon, to the root level of a Finder browser window, for?
I've never used it for anything. It never has ANYTHING of use under it. My friend, a first time Mac user, looked at it an assumed it would kick of the web browser, or show a network file server browser, or something. But in fact, it does nothing. Or so it would seem to a first-tie user.
I assume it's for NFS shares or something like that -- but if so, since the Sharing control panel doesn't offer NFS sharing, it's pretty useless.
Can someone point me to some info that would let me use this thing?
Thanks,
Rob
