I have three macs, a powermac 5500, a Starmax 4000, both with os 9.1, and a G4 with Panther (10.3.9). The problem comes in whenever I want to share files between the macs. I can use my G4 as the server and connect to it. However, it doesn't appear in the chooser- i have to type in the IP address. Also, I have to connect to the G4 every time i turn on one of the others. I set one of the OS 9 machines to connect at startup and it refuses to do so. Any ideas?
The other problem is that I have sharing enabled on the OS 9 machines so they can share files among those machines. The problem is that I can't connect to them with the G4. The G4 has to be the server, apparently. Is this true? Can I fix this?
My network is like this: G4 connected to the Westell router by Airport. The others are connected via ethernet. Thanks guys.
