Forget all the rest, the meat is here.
I can work with X and X and 8.6 and X.
From X to 8.6, I have the same symptoms that you describe.
I can only mount X on 8.6 , not the other way around.
That's more than I can do. If I want to mount my X machine's drive on
my
8.6's desktop, I have to reboot the X machine into 9.2.2. That's not
too
inconvenient as it's only in X when I don't need it for anything
useful,
but it would be nice to be able to transfer files occasionally while
it's
in the X state. My current mounting script (using AppleTalk over
Ethernet) is:
I am assuming you have AppleTalk on on your X machine (on network pref
panel) and that you have sharing on.
i know, I know, but just to make sure ... 8)
Did you ever try mounting the X volume via network browser or chooser?
This script works for me, using the IP address of the X volume on the
LAN (= 192.1.1.3 in this example)
mount volume "afp//Nigel Garvey:censored@192.1.1.3/PowerBook HD"
And if this does not work for you, I'd eliminate the white spaces,
since my user name is deivy and HD is SantosFC (<-- current Brazilian
Champion of Football. You might think this is irrelevant, but I
don't!!! :) )
It works wether you are connected via ethernet or wireless.
mount volume "PowerBook HD" on server "Nigel Garvey9s PowerBook" as
user name ,
"Nigel Garvey" with password [censored]
This doesn't work when X is running on the PowerBook. I've tried
changing
the details to those of my X "account", to no avail. What's the secret?
NG
By the way, if you are *NOT* connected via airport card and the
machines are in two different locations I can tell you how to wake up
the other machine from sleep to receive AppleEvents. It will work if
you have python in your 8.6.
Let me know.
Another thing, before Jaguar, I was able to mount both ways X-8.6 and
8.6 - X.
A job of Jobs one would assume.
