How do I network the following Mac equipment
together please? . . .

I have the following equipment that I am trying to
network together

iMac Desktop Computer (currently connected to
Ethernet Router/ADSL Modem)
iBook Laptop (with Airport Card inside)
Mini Hub
Ethernet Router/ADSL Modem
Airport Base Station
Ethernet Cables

I would like to share files over a network between
the iMac and iBook via the Hub and Airport
Basestation

I currently have all the above hardware plugged
via Ethernet cables into the Mini Hub

So the iMac is able to surf the Net and so is the
iBook via the Airport Base Station in the Hub

How do I network them all so they can SEE each
other and move files from one computer to
another wirelessly?

Thank you for your help

It is much appreciated

Rob

Activate the FileSharing (AFP) in the SHARING section of the system preference.

Both Mac have to be shared, then select GO from the top menu of the finder and then CONNECT TO SERVER.

Your Macs should be able to see each otehr throught LOCAL. Remember to activate the AppleTalk in the NETWORK section.

Good Luck
