Actually it is VERY flaky on SMALL networks. (Read: one Mac, one NeXT). The NeXT can mount the Mac fine, and read from it, but it HANGS TIGHTLY the NeXT if I try to copy a 120K text file from the NeXT to the Mac. Not only that, but when I restart the NeXT it ALWAYS does a Check Disk at restart. (Which always turns my stomach.) I just saw the latest propaganda video from NeXT yesterday.. In it Jobs says that they worked directly with Novell to integrate that networking sw into NS3.0, but they implemented AppleShare AFP protocols BY THEMSELVES... It shows. -- -- Roy Lovejoy | internet: roy@adeptsln.cts.com Pixel PooBah | AppleLink: adept Adept Solutions | CIS: 72447,1447
