Thanks for the update, I was wondering if you'd found some sort of 
magic, as I've always mounted the shares from the GUI.

All I have to do to go back to Panther is pull the new HD I bought, 
and reinstall the old one, but I'm hesitant to.  I'm more inclined to 
do it over stability issues than being unable to access my classic 
Appletalk shares.  Especially since from what I'm hearing I'll loose 
the ability to serve them up once I upgrade to OpenVMS 8.2 (that will 
be a while, as I like to wait for them to work all the bugs out).

If you don't mine me asking, what is your dependence on the SE/30? 
Can't you simply get a USB-to-Serial converter?  That's what I did on 
my old G4/450 AGP.
