The server (don't know what OS it is running) would need to have Appletalk (e.g. netatalk) running for the Mac to see it, or if it has an ftp server run something like Fetch on the Mac to download required files. Obviously the Mac will need to have TCP/IP configured and running (don't use DHCP, use a manually assigned IP address).
I do this now for an old Mac running System 7.6 and I need to move files to the Leopard machine.
