Can you describe your current network topology? 'I have a machine running OS X and I have a Quadra' does not provide enough information. How are they presently connected? What is connected to what, if anything? (Is the OS X machine connected to the Internet? If so, how? DSL/cable modem? Dial-up? Do you have a router? A hub? A switch? Describe your network setup.)

I just want to share the files on the network. Don't need to connect the Q630 to the internet.

Thanks,

1) Stick a second ethernet device on an OS X machine. Any OS X machine.
2) Go to the Sharing preferences pane. Look for Internet sharing.
3) Tell it to share the connection FROM the first (original) ethernet device TO the second (new) ethernet device.

That should be all that's required?

Although, what does your network topology look like right now? You gave very few details, so I'm going to GUESS that you have your Mac plugged directly into a cable modem or DSL modem, with no 'router', right?

The Q630 is running 8.1.
OS X should offer Internet sharing. (Look for the Sharing preference pane.) You would probably need a second ethernet interface to get the Quadra on, though.
Thanks,
