Just picked up a nice older Mac Power
PC 9600 233mhz 128ram. I have an
ethernet setup in my house that is WinXP
based for 3 computers, shared cable
modem etc. I can file share and internet
share bettween the PCs. I pluged the
mac into the network and was able to set
up TCP IP for internet, but can I get it to
file and print share with the XP
machines?? It would be really nice if I
could. Any thoughts? Thanks

-Jeff

You'll need DAVE or something similar, unless you upgrade to OS X 10.2, in which case sharing capability is built in.
