Greetings All,
I'm new to the forum and have been appreciating all of the wonderful posts!
I'm trying to share files between a Powerbook G3 PDQ running OS 9.2 with a Performa 575 (without ethernet) running 7.5.3 with a serial cable. I've filled in the necessary name, password, computer name, etc., turned on file sharing and AppleTalk, set up some shared folders, and tried to select the proper ports on both sides. I can't get the computers to see each in the chooser. I've fiddled enough with the settings that I'm starting to wonder if it's the cord, a recently purchased new, legacy serial cable from Cable Wholesale.
I would appreciate any insight all of you may have, perhaps I'm missing something obvious. Thank you so much for your time!
