This reflects the updates from the Important Updates pages as well as what I used when making those tutorials. Of course using versions previous to these may result in incompatibility. I also find QuickDraw GX, if installed, to be particularly detrimental to networking for some reason, which is why it is listed as not recommended on the installation packages explanation page. Also, are your X systems running Leopard? Networking between Tiger and 7.6 was always unreliable for me, but Leopard seems to have squashed such problems. Those are all the things I can think of for now.

I did try it a few times, each time I tried to connect to a different shared folder on my Mac mini and the same result - Color Classic freezes and needs a force restart. I think I have QuickDraw GX installed but I disabled all its extensions since I don't need it. I hope this will help you in finding the problem cause.

I'm running OS 7.6.1 with all the updates, and am sure I followed the instructions right. Any ideas?

Posted: Sat Jan 26, 2008 12:14 am Quote    I have an Intel iMac ( OS 10.4.11) networked through a Linksys router to a G3 iMac (OS9.2.2 and 10.2), to a 9500 with a Sonnet G4 card (OS 9.2.2), and a Mac IIfx (OS 7.6.1). All machines connect to any other in both directions, usually with no problems, although sometimes a glitch shows up. Shareway IP is active on all the machines except the Intel iMac and is necessary for the Intel iMac to connect to the other machines, though the reverse works without Shareway IP. The IIfx has OT1.1.2 and Appleshare 3.8.3, both necessary. I sometimes get the "application unexpectedly quit" msg on the IIfx, but this entire lashup mostly just works, so I can't understand why you're having fatal problems.
