Just happened to be my solution: I am sure there are many more possible. In fact, I now have the little guy ridding piggyback on my PT Pro, and doing very well with the SSD fun of Classic Mac Software, and a nice wired ethernet connection.Reading this thread makes me regret selling off my G4 mini (purchased on the day it was announced!) for like $80 ~15 years ago... Didn't see that regret coming! Thought there was no way I'd have a use for it again!
So, I'll give you the rundown on exactly what I did to make this work:@LaPorta I'm curious about your ability to get machines with > 7.5.3 to connect to 10.4; what exactly are you doing on either end? Is 7.1.1 the floor?
Ah, interesting - Sharepoints is the key.. thanks, I'll try this out!So, I'll give you the rundown on exactly what I did to make this work:
1. In OS X 10.4, I used the SharePoints program version 3.5.1 (the version is important), because the later version that is supposed to be for 10.4 omits the option to enable AppleTalk for AFP (even though it is still possible to enable it).
2. In System 7.1, I installed OT and upgraded to the newest version that would run
3. On the same machine, I replaced the built-in AppleShare extension with version 3.7.4 to allow AppleShare IP to work.
I can't take all the credit for this, I got the info from multiple sources. But, that is really all there was to it. As stated before, this will not work on 68000 equipped machines because OT cannot run on it, and I don't think OT runs on System 6, either.
What exactly is the tricky required? I am trying to setup a similar server. It looks like a Mac Mini running 10.4 covers my 7.5.3 to 10.11 machines. I just need that 7.1 solution.There is trickery that can be accomplished. With OT installed and a far newer AppleShare stolen from a newer system, my IIfx with 7.1.1 can connect to AppleShare over IP with my Quicksilver running 10.4.11 that has AppleTalk re-enabled. Can't connect to it with SE, though, because AppleShare over IP requires OT, and OT will not run on a 68000.
See three posts above.What exactly is the tricky required? I am trying to setup a similar server. It looks like a Mac Mini running 10.4 covers my 7.5.3 to 10.11 machines. I just need that 7.1 solution.
I missed that. Sorry. What specific version of OT did you use?See three posts above.

OpenTransport 1.3 or 1.3.1 should work. You may need to export and place the files by hand or lift it out of a working 7.5 install. A few people have reported good luck doing this.What specific version of OT
