I've done that before...I'll try again. It's working more or less. I
have disabled the File Sharing Extension. I now don't get that stupid
message but in exchange I can't share any files anymore. Program linking
is fine. I've reinstalled the Network software from my MacOS 8.1
CD...still no luck. It has worked before without getting that message.
It's like really weird.
