Re: Past comes back to haunt me...help
If I am getting this correctly, when you try to mount a shared volume or folder residing on the IIci from the Umax, it is asking for a user name and password before it will mount. Perhaps the situation is more complicated than this, but if not, then there are two places where users and passwords can be set. Ed Murphy -- Thanks Ed I did try to do both things-create new user or even go on as guest- setting the IIci to allow a guest to log on. I also tried to change pw. The IIci wouldn't allow a pw change without putting in the old one. And I could not make it accept a new user or a guest. It kept going to default no matter what I highlighted. The final solution as you might have read was to pull some pref files: I just dumped 3 items: Appletalk prefs, Users and Groups Data file and AppleShare prep. which allowed me to change pw. I then put back what I needed, Appleshare prep to operate and it worked. Thanks again dan_A -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

There probably *are* two copies. All Plug-Ins should be in the System Folder location under later Mac OS versions; just alias that folder for browsers that don't check it like Nutscrape or older IEs. the pickle FAQ http://macfaq.org/index.shtml Software Archive ftp://download:[EMAIL PROTECTED]//Users/thepickl/Sites/Archive/ http://www.members.jmug.org/%7Ethepickl/archive/ _ -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

But I *am* using a 500MHz cpu. *My* Wallstreet is has about an 8-9 second delay as well. And that's entirely unacceptable. iCab launches with a new window open in less than 2 seconds. Mozilla is suffering from severe bloat, mostly due to the morons at Nutscrape who thought it would be a good idea to put an e-mail client and an HTML editor in it. Chimera is about 10x faster and it has the exact same rendering engine. And iCab still kicks Mozilla up and down on the Classic Mac OS. the pickle FAQ http://macfaq.org/index.shtml Software Archive ftp://download:[EMAIL PROTECTED]//Users/thepickl/Sites/Archive/ http://www.members.jmug.org/%7Ethepickl/archive/ _ -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
