That would help a lot.
Hi Bjorn These instructions are a bit more complete than is really necessary, but I wanted you to have same setup I do for consistency. Assuming the machines are on the same LAN, On the Tiger 'server' machine - go to System Preferences -> Sharing and turn on the 'Personal File Sharing' tick box. On the 'client' machine in Finder from the 'Go' menu choose Network and you should see the 'server' listed there. Click 'connect' and enter the username/password from the 'server' machine. That will mount the remote share and put it in the Finder window side bar. Now hit 'Shift-Cmd-G' and enter /Volumes as the path. The file share will be on that list. Use Cmd-Option and drag the share to your desktop to create an alias. Unmount the network share by hitting the little eject in the sidebar or dragging the share to the trash. Prove it works by double clicking the alias to remount the volume. Now unmount it again. Try it in Textedit - start the program, hit Cmd-O and choose the alias. Wait about one second and it will mount the network share and show you the contents. Now try MacVim... Hopefully that was clear enough - let me know.
