Good Day To the World

I would like to hard wire G4 to G5 ? I would like to grab files and assign printing tasks,

Can I use ethernet to ethernet or fire wire to fire wire ?

I have a router would this work and would it need a internet connection or just switched on ?

Thank You :Cool:

Either Ether or ieee

Either would work.:)

Thats Great, Would you dare to walk me through the process, as soon as ppp & proxies are mentioned I have to put TCP on my IP, If you catch my drift,

does it auto sync? in drop box or share folder?


thanks :Cool:

If we're talking short term...just use wires (ethernet or firewire cable). Then go to your "Networking" control panel to get them talking with each other.
