Mac Forum / Applications / Mac Applications / June 200710.4.10 networked from older Macs
I've just made a jump to 10.4.10 (from 10.4.2) and now I find the network connection from an older PPC (7300 running 9.1) cuts out after about one minute. It's identical with two older machines. Is there any way of working round this, network-wise, or is yet another example of the dreaded Progress? Thanks Larry G4-MDD on 10.4.10, 2 x 7300/200s on 9.1: linked by 10base-T Repeater. > I've just made a jump to 10.4.10 (from 10.4.2) and now I find the > network connection from an older PPC (7300 running 9.1) cuts out after > about one minute.

The "defaults method" in <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305420> worked for 10.4.9. I don't think 10.4.10 adds additional problems. (Haven't tried yet after upgrading.)

But just in case anyone else is going to try it, note: the actual terminal command in that article 'appears' in an invisible font! Just select the the section on the page, copy and paste it into dear old BBEdit, or whatever, and you'll find it.

The font is not invisible here. Anyway, I tried connecting from my old Mac and Apple has indeed killed connectivity again. SignatureMvh./Regards, Niels Jørgen Kruse, Vanløse, Denmark I had the same problem when I bought one of these new-fangled OSX G4s and tried to get my old-fangled 9600 (OS9.1 G3) to connect to it. The solution I found was, instead of connecting the 9600 to the G4, connect the G4 to the 9600 (if that makes sense). I went through Network on OSX, connected to the 9600, mounted the disk I wanted and copied a 2GB folder over with no cut outs. Hope this helps. > I've just made a jump to 10.4.10 (from 10.4.2) and now I find the > network connection from an older PPC (7300 running 9.1) cuts out after [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > G4-MDD on 10.4.10, 2 x 7300/200s on 9.1: linked by 10base-T Repeater. [pardon the top-posting but I'm following yours] But those volumes just don't show up in my network window, nor can they be raised via their files-sharing address. The network window used to show them (in the Panther days I think it was) but not now. For the last while it's been necessary to mount the G4 on the 7300 desktop.
