I appreciate the response but I just don't know enough about this to 
answer your questions.  My GS has a hard drive that came installed with 
System 6.0.1.  I thought I'd try to network these machines together 
because I'd always heard how easy Apple products were to install and get 
running.  So far the ten node Enthernet LAN I'm running with Intel boxes 
was child's play compared to getting these two machines to talk.

If you can think of anything I should try I would appreciate your 
suggestions.  

Regards,
Bob
