Re: Panther & Filesharing

[Frank Cornew]

I have read the rest of this thread. I'm actually a bit more lost 
than Clark. I just transitioned from 9.2.2 to Panther (mainly to get 
my iPod working), and while have worked out most of the issues with 
my everyday working environment, I'm not seeing any networked volumes 
at all, either on the desktop or the sidebar.

Basically trying to find a single desktop Mac running OS 9.2.2 that 
is hooked up via ethernet to a graphite airport base station. Panther 
is running my Pismo and the airport connection sees the internet just 
fine via the ABS modem. I set this rig up and it worked just fine 
with both computers under OS 9.2.2, and I figured that I would 
eventually dope it out. Nonetheless, the feedback from this thread 
makes me wonder if things aren't working quite right.

Have attempted to mount via the browser with the desktop's IP 
address, no joy, not even a wait. Appletalk is enabled via Airport on 
the pismo. Guess I should check if it is working in the opposite 
direction. Mounting via afp://thismachine. is accomplished how?

This is under a Panther clean install with one update. Kind of bummed 
as networking was supposed to be a no brainer with the new OS.

We have a small network at home and I use file sharing frequently. Since
upgrading to Panther I've been confounded by how it is handled now. When I
log onto another computer its icon isn't mounted to the desktop or to the
sidebar. There's no visual hint at all that I am sharing and no way to log
off. At least that's what I thought until this morning.


Have you checked Finder Preferences.  In Jaguar there are options
there for controlling what kind of drives appear on the desktop,
including servers.
