Yeah, if you want to connect an older Mac to an OSX server, you'll have
to use a version of Appletalk that can do AppleTalk IP.  I think that
came out with later Systems 8 to 9.  However, those only work to
connect to 10.3.9 at most on the OSX side.  10.4+ won't connect.

The only way to connect a GS to OSX is via FTP.
