Hi all;

If you have installed all the software needed,that is all the drivers,
CDev, FSTs...etc on the AppleIIGs and reset slot 1 to AppleTalk.

On the Mac, do you have AppleTalk on and do you have File sharing on.

Also, you will need to set up the users & groups, to tell who can
connect...etc

If you need more information, feel free to email me at the email
adddress below.

Anyway I hope this helps.
