[G4] G4 as a file server?

[Dave Walker]

Google for a piece of shareware called Sharepoints - It will allow  
you to create custom shared drives on regular OS X, without having to  
go up to OS X Server.
It has saved my bacon a few times in the past, and I thoroughly  
recommend it

Hope this helps
