If you are direct connecting two computers without a
router, hub or switch you must use crossover cables.

Of course appletalk must be set to ethernet.

If that is the case it should be a breeze.

All of the Apple OS are backwards compatible using
appletalk.

I have 7.5, 8.6, 9.2 and X machines on the same
network. All sharing files, no problems.
