Hello Clark, I�ve been doing some testing with my network connections.
1) G4 (Panther) still dropping connection to G3 (os9) server. With HD sleep on or off - Still drops System Sleep = off on all computers 2) I connected my computer to another G4 running Panther and the G3 OS9, after a while the G3 got dropped but the G4 stayed connected. Any ideas? I hate to upgrade my G3 to OS-X, I�ve got softraid running on it and prefer it to the OS X built in raid.
