You need to connect via IP address, Appletalk was dropped in 10.4.
You'll need (iirc) Appleshare client 3.7 or better on the 520. This
means you have to initiate the connection from the 520c and know
the IP address of the iMac.
You can get Shareway IP from Open Door networks, but that's
expensive. This is what Apple bundled with OS 9 to get IP file
sharing. <http://www.opendoor.com/shareway/>
So, do I need a router or something to do this? I've been doing it
with just a crossover cable, looks like I may have to finally spring
for a router to get the job done. Someone else suggested using FTP to
do it, but I have no idea how to set my 520c up for a broadband
connection.
Also, where do I look to see what version Appleshare I have on the
520? And how would I upgrade that? I'm not going to spring for any
expensive programs to get this to work, since I don't intend on
spending any money on this old clunker. Just trying to beat it into
usage.
