[comp.sys.mac.comm] Sharing files sys 7 to sys 6 -- answer

owen@astro.washington.edu (06/07/91)

How to enable system 6 machines to see files served by system 7.0
machines: use the system 6 installer to install AppleShare (don't just
drag it over), since the installer actually modifies the system (sigh).
One probably must use the "customize" option of the installer (select
install "network workstation" software).

Embarrassingly simple. I never used AppleTalk before system 7,
and didn't realize it needed to be installed. Definitely RTFM.

Thanks to David (dmittman@beowulf.Jpl.Nasa.Gov) and Jason
(jblue@mwunix.mitre.org), and any more whose responses have
not yet arrived (I only posted an hour ago!).
