Randy,

Thanks for the response.  I'm assuming you are talking about the Mac side 
of things as I don't see those folders on the IIgs.  Yes sharing is 
enabled and the File Sharing Monitor on the Mac indicates that there are 
no connected users and that it is idle.  I can't find anything on the Mac 
called 'Chooser' but AppleShare is listed as an active extension.

I'm kind of new at this, it would be very helpful if you could be more 
specific about what I need to do to get this working.  You help is very 
much appreciated.

Regards,
Bob
