I use Fetch 3.0.3 on my LC and turn on FTP on my OS X Mac. Don't forget to binhex or Mac binary your files before transferring, or you'll lose the Resource Fork.

Unfortunately, and somebody may swoop in to correct me on this, I think Mac OS 10.6 removes most of the old appletalk features. If you have a TCP/IP stack on the LC, your best bet…

Tom's hit the nail on the head... just remember to pop in an "official" entry via the web site.

I believe that in previous years, this sort of set up has been acceptable. The main thing about the 'Challenge isn't the arbitrary rules, it's having some fun with old hardware tha…

I'm thinking of entering the Retrochallenge with a little project of my own: to not only get my LCIII (my very first computer) on the Internet for the first time, but also to use i…

Yeah, you can replace it with an ethernet card...the only other type of card ever made for the Comms Slot. Keep in mind, you'll need a CS2 card, rather than a CS1 card due to the s…

Yep, since it's a card. You can replace it with a 10 Mbps Ethernet card.

My Performa 6360 has a internet by phone port that i have never used since the day i bought this mac as a used unit about 5 years ago. Can i remove it without too much labour and …

This is really neat and geek way to connect computers, but now all I have is a: LC 475 with an Ethernet card, MacBook Pro and one Ethernet cable. How to connect this pieces of hard…

what I have done is I have a linux computer (any debian-based distribution that uses apt for package distribution will make this really easy) with netatalk installed. Here's what …

It's like reading a Linux manual, very nice Anyway I'm choosing option 3, "Best for arbitrary transfers at random times". Could you give me some practise advice in this topic?

Hello, what is the easiest way to transfer files between a LC 475 (7.5.3) and a MacBook Pro (10.6.2)? Click to expand... "Easiest"? USB floppy on the MacBook Pro. "Easiest i…

I have a PowerBook 145B and I want to go online with the Modem. Is there a way to do this? Maybe a Dial-up server?

Unfortunately I already have the latest version (2.0.4?) if the AirPort software.

http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120120 Software update for OS9 is not really maintained by Apple anymore, so far as I can see, and so seldom if ever works. You have…

I don't know. I wasn't able to get it working under any sub versions of OS 9. Also, if there is an update available, I can't get it. The MacOS update utility has always been hit a…

Two thoughts: 1. There is an Airport update available for OS9, as I recall, and though one would have thought it included in 9.2.2, you never know.... Worth a shot? 2. I mostly u…

I own two tangerine iBooks and one has an AirPort card in it. Because of its limited specs (128mb ram, 300mhz G3, 4mb Vram and a 12gb hard drive.) I decided to install 9.2.2 inste…

My PM5400 works pretty well for browsing, as long as java stays off.

Thanks. That did it. I can connect to the server from the Mac, and transfer files. Now to see if I can get macipgw to compile... Interestingly enough, the response from Asante (w…

I have a stack of silvers I use with my old Thinkpads and Wallstreets. Under OS 9.x with the wavelan drivers you need to input either 0x or x before you type in the WEP key or it d…
