Limited success of sorts,

I discovered a network control panel on the Classic. This gives an option of Local Talk, ET Phase 1, and EtherTalk alternative

The only one that appears to do anything is the EtherTalk Alternative. If I select this I can see the iMac in Chooser and the iMac can see the classic.

The problem is that if the iMac tries to connect to the classic it runs a little contacting bar then tells you you get no response from the server, and if I try to contact the iMac from the classic it goes through a few screens then comes up with Appleshare divide by zero - Restart, and if you don't disconnect the Dayna box, the Classic will just continually come up with the Divide by zero error and you cannot get it to start...

Does anyone have any idea here?

many thanks
