Hi, I have confirmed that, running OS 8.6 on a Powerbook 2400, you should use Open Transport 2.0.3 and not 2.5.1. Using Open Transport 2.5.1, if I ever fail to perfectly connect to a server, or a web site, I do not get a StopAlert box saying that the server or domain could not be found. Instead, the application (mail, Internet Explorer, etc.) and/or the Finder will hang up and ultimately require a restart. Using Open Transport 2.0.3, I get the proper StopAlert boxes, no hang-ups, no restarts. Open Transport 2.5 shipped with OS 8.6 on later products such as slot-loading iMac DV. But don't use it on a Powerbook 2400.
