[CUBE] Networking help please?

[david sarcastix]

Rossi,

What you are asking to do has so many ways of being configured that there is
no 'default' way that I have found.

I have successfully connected to my Powerbook from my CUBE. The CUBE being
on my hardwired ethernet network (with about 7 other Macs) to my PowerBook,
which is on my Airport network. I have not found a way to go back the other
way.. The PowerBook does not 'see' the CUBE. When I do trial and error
testing, I end up losing my way and bitching up my network, so I have given
up for the time being. And I can live with the 'one way' connecting.

I find it highly amusing that there are 'Missing Manuals' for iPhoto and
iTunes, but not for Airport.

If you like, we can speak on the phone and I will give you the benefit of my
limited knowledge and get you part of the way there. In other words I would
talk you through it as you go.

I can't do it for perhaps a week, as I am in the middle of a few projects
that are keeping me quite busy.

If you are interested in this help, let me know.

Best

David
