Hi Joe, Well, 9.2 is not an option in this case, for it is a powerbook 5300cs from 1995! ;-) I have AppleTalk in the kernel: "options NETATALK". It seems though, that appletalk does not work proberly. ifconfig show that is in there, and at the right interface, but I cannot see the Mac or vice versa. They can communicate fine with TCP/IP. Their AppleTalk (DDP?) address are 65280.117 and 65280.64, should work IMO. But it does not. /Palle
