Ok Networkers:
I've figured out that I can do file sharing over the LAN with Appletalk set to
ethernet on both machines. It works like a charm.
But, the problem is that my server (the 950, not the 7100) has two printers
and a Duodock hooked up to it using Appletalk via PhoneNet to the printer
port. If I switch Appletalk to Ethernet on the 950 to share with the 7100, I
lose the printers.
How can I have both working at the same time? I want to be able to share
between the 950 and 7100 over the ethernet, and be able to use the printers.
It would also seem to me that if I got this working right I'd be able to share
the printers as well, right?
Thanks,
Rob Johansen
