AppleTalk Not Working
Authored by: Anonymous on Apr 04, '01 12:31:14AM

Personally, I'm not able to connect to a machine with AppleShare on running Mac OS 9.0.4. The current AppleTalk implementation is surprisingly buggy.

I'm surprised I haven't sen more complains about this. Seems like a fairly basic need. Perhaps most other people aren't experiencing this.

I think there is some technote stating this. Mac OS X does not support traditional FileSharing, such as netatalk and MacOS provide by default.

I don't know how to configure netatalk to use TCP/IP.
In Mac OS 9.x you simply have to check "Clients connect via TCP/IP" checkbox in the FileSharing Control panel.
Just with pre-OS 9, you cannot easily share to Mac OS X Clients.

Hope this helps, iSee
