We are having problems with one of our small LocalTalk networks. This network consist of 5 Mac IIs daisy chained together with 3 printers. It looks like the following: ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ | 1 | | 2 | | 3 | | 4 | | 5 | | 6 | | 7 | | 8 | | |_| |_| |_| |_| |_| |_| |_| | |___| |___| |___| |___| |___| |___| |___| |___| 1 Printer 2-4 Mac IIs 5 FileServer 6-7 Printers 8 Mac II Mac II #8 is the problem Mac. It can see all devices on the network except #5 the fileserver (a IIx with seperate folders published via TOPS). All other Macs can see each other and the problem Mac (#8). We tested with InterPoll and Mac #8 cannot see Mac #5 by this method either. All the obvious solutions have been attempted: replacing PhoneNet boxs, cables etc... The fileserver does not have a monitor so we are not positive that it can see Mac #8. Help! -- Timothy A.
