Networking OS X Powerbook and OS9.2 G4
I have recently upgraded my laptop to Jaguar , and am now trying to connect the laptop to the G4.
I have enabled all file sharing on both units but still cant connect. I am also a bit confused concerning Apple Networks , am I supposed to use Apple Talk or TCP/IP ?
I have tried enabling tcp/ip on the G4 in the File sharing , but it does not come back with any ip address. The Powerbook has a ip address , i got this from ifconfig -a , but cannot determine what the ip address of the Os 9 is ?
This is very frustrating as I was lead to believe that setting up a home network with Apple was easy ?
Any ideas in what I am doing wrong ? I have enabled file sharing on both , set apple talk on, but not sure this conflicts with tcp /ip
