Hi all,

I'm new to this forum and to Macs in general.

I know this has been talked about before, but I can't recall if there's a good native way to share files between Windows XP and OS 9.2, or I need to get Dave?
Thanks

Thanks You can buy Dave or you can establish an FTP site on the XP machine. You may use Interarchy to mount the FTP site like a networked volume on your Mac.

Thanks MisterMe,

I take it from your responce there is no built-in way to share files in OS 9.x.
Is Dave the easiest solution? I heard there's also Sharity, and others. Which one is easier/better?

Thanks again

Thanks again Always remember that Google is your friend (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=PC%2BMac%2Bshare&btnG=Google+Search). I am particularly intrigued by PC-Mac-Net Fileshare (http://www.lavasoftware.com/fileshare.html). The Lite version is free. PC MacLAN (http://www.miramar.com/Products/PC_MACLAN/index.html) has been around since the Flood.
