I just installed OS X.3 at work on my computer. I can see the PC on the network but I can not see the other macs. Any ideas? The other mac run on OS 9.2.2 and one OS X server 10.1.

I also completed the OS update before I checked my network. Could the update be the problem? Do I need to reinstall panther and not update?

Make sure AppleTalk is turned on on all three macs. In Panther it can be found at System Preferences->Network->Built-in Ethernet->AppleTalk.

Thanks, now I can see the other macs except the server. Any Ideas?

Having never used 10.1 I don't know the details of it's networking, but try turning Personal File Sharing on on each computer in the Sharing System Preferences. On both computers, look in Network and make sure that it says something along the lines of ethernet being active.
BTW, can the server see any other computers?
