I hope this isn't too off topic, but here it goes. I'm trying to connect my G4 iMac, running panther, to my vintage mac, running os 8.1. I have enabled appletalk on my ethernet, and enabled filesharing and TCP/IP. I press Command-K on my OS X machine, and enter the address afp://10.0.0.20. It looks for a second, and says there's no response from the server.
I have previously connected from OS X to classic OS back when I had jaguar, and I remember that you had to use a special syntax on the OS X machine, but I can't remember what it was. Anyone know???
You need a minimum of OS 9.0 to serve AppleShare over IP (ASIP) using FileSharing.
In order to make the above setup work you'll need to only use AppleTalk. After you press Command-K look for your OS 8.1 machine in the list and click on it then connect.
