I have a network with some System 7.0 and some System 6.0.5 Macs. I would like the System 6.0.5 Macs to be able to mount shared volumes on the System 7.0 Macs (I KNOW the reverse direction will not work -- system 6 doesn't have any file serving capability). When I use the 6.0.5 AppleShare and try to mount a system 7 volume, it fails with a complaint about lacking resources, and suggests I've mis-installed something. If I use the system 7.0 AppleShare on the 6.0.5 machines, this works just fine, UNLESS I make a mistake (like use an unknown user name), at which point it tries to paint a dialog box, and crashes. Can anybody suggest what I'm doing wrong? Or is it simply a bug? Feel free to mail or post, but if you mail, I'll summarize (reducing net traffic). Thanks -- Russell owen@astro.washington.edu

Did you install the Appleshare software on the 6.0.? macs by using the installer? If you just copy the Applshare file (RDEV) into the system folder the mac will complain about missing resources. You must use the installer to install Appleshare. -Scott
