I think I said that ;-)

IP Net Router does exactly the same thing but is shareware.

I'm hoping you do dig up EasyShare as it sounds like it would solve many problems for all us old Mac users, particularly if it works on a 128K too.
I took a look at IPNetRouter, but couldn't make heads nor tails of it. Everything I read on their site revolved around giving internet access through LocalTalk to an older Mac. I didn't see anything about sharing an Appleshare network volume to another Mac through TCP/IP. I might have missed something, but in any event, it's a very un-Mac like program. Shareway IP is pretty much click and go. :)

If I get hold of EasyShare and it works on the 512k, I'll fire off a copy to you to try on the 128k. I assume the only thing you'd be able to share is an external 400k drive, but that would be the coolest! :)

Here's what the Read Me files says about the RAM it uses.

Memory usage
EasyShare INIT approximately 53 K bytes

EasyShare desk accessory (when opened) approximately 32 K bytes
That's 85k. How much does System 3.2 take up? Looks like it would be pretty tight! :)
