You need to have AppleShare installed on the GS.  If you have a ROM 1 GS you 
can activate it in slot 7 on the ROM 3 I think it's slot 1.  You have to 
turn on File Sharing on the Mac.  You will be able to see the Mac HD on your 
GS but not the other way around.  You can run GS programs on the GS from the 
Mac HD over the AppleTalk network.
