FTP was never designed to do that. It is "file transfer protocol", it is not a file sharing protocol. Most file sharing protocols are designed for LANs, not WANs. Also, Classic OS has it's own share of pain through use of resource forks which make no sense to the rest of the planet.I was referring to Classic Macs not being able to run apps off an FTP share.
Mounting a FTP share as a disk is something that came along in 10.4 or 10.5 (can't remember). A Mac Plus can't do that! It has to use a client, and pull the files down to it's on drive first.
