[X4U] file sharing problem update

[Richard Nagle]

Thanks to all, what I did was made a public folder on that drive, and removed 
all permission made it open,
works great... However still can't get the G4 to connect to the G3 and get one 
of the G3 hard drives mounted on the G4
everytime I go to connect to server, and punch in 192.16.0.22 nothing.
everything is on and sharing.

W>hile on the G4, click once on the OS 9 HD, Get Info [cmd-I]; next to 
"Ownership and Permissions" turn the reveal tringle down if necessary, and click 
on "Ignore ownership on this volume" and that should allow you to drop stuff 
onto that volume. This opens a huge security hole, btw. If it were me, I'd use 
the /Users/Shared folder, that's what it's for.
