All of this, for some reason I can't figure, does not work on french Systems. I tried for years, with every possible combinations of OpenTransport, AppleShare and Chooser, to no avail. Since I read in several places, including this very thread, that it was indeed possible, I assume there is an issue with localised (or at least french) Systems.
Now today I wanted to be sure, after reading you guys. So I installed Mac OS 8.1 US on one of my PowerBook. And it worked just fine. Incredible, believe it or not, but it was the first time I was actually able to share files via AppleShare from a 68k Mac to my Leopard MacBook Pro. With all my other machines, for the several past years, on different flavors of System 7.x to 8.x, the Chooser always crashed with a -1 error just after clicking the Connect button. Works as expected from OS 9.x to 10.x, though.
Sorry, this is slightly off-topic since I bring my own problems in. But I thought it could be an interesting question!
