Thanks for all the useful suggestions, but I'm still having problems
getting things to work. I installed netatalk, and the Mac can see my
machine, but cannot connect to it (it gives the error: files are already
mounted locally). I then tried to ftp to the Mac, which had file
sharing on and should be a ftp server. I got the ftp message that the
network was unreachable (since I hadn't connected to the internet). I
wouldn't mind running an ftp server (any suggestions--there seem to be
lots), but I'm thinking the problem may be with my
/etc/network/interfaces file. It reads:
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.50
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
Does this look correct? I'm not sure if I need to do anything to have
my machine use the ethernet card (connected to the switch and mac) for
ftp when I haven't used the modem to dialup the internet. I realize I'm
not being very clear here, but any help (and all the advice so far
given) is greatly appreciated. Thanks,
Ric
