IIgs GS/OS AppleTalk question - volume size



I have a ROM 3 IIgs w/ the latest version of GS/OS.  I established a
LocalTalk link to my G4 Mac (using a Stealth Serial Port, an oldschool
serial addon).  I can browse my G4's massive drives with ease.

I tried to get this going on my Mac Plus w/ System 6.0.5 and found
that on any but my smallest (2GB) partition, the Mac Plus will bomb on
selection of that drive.  I found here:

That there is a 2GB limit on most AppleShare protocols.  Why can the
IIgs deal it this easily while the Mac fail??  I suppose GS/OS is more
recent than System 6.0.5??  GS/OS easily reads my 60GB partitions.

What version of AppleShare am I using on the GS?  Thanks.
