I have got a G3 and a Performa 5300, both running on 8.1.  I bought
myself a Ethernet CS card for the Performa and an Ethernet cable. I
think I've installed all the necessary software. When I access Appletalk
to set the "Connect via:" to Ethernet I get an Error message. I
discovered, that the Network Control Panel was invisible and that it's
Type was missing. So I fixed that. But when I tried to open it, it said
it couldn't open because Open Transport was active...sooo I deactivated
Open Transport and restarted only to discover then, that the Network
Control Panel doesn't work, when Appletalk was deactivated. And Appltalk
was only deactivated 'cos Open Transport wasn't on. WOW! Now that's what
I call areal Catch 22.

Can anybody help?
