i have both airport and ethernet connections into my computers (ethernet is from powerbook directly to my g5, and airport connects to whole network)

both computers (g5 and pb) have airport running but i want to make itunes share over the network cable not the wifi.

does anyone know how to do this??

a few times it has connected using the network cable for some reason, but i don't know how or why.
 
You can try making ethernet your first connection option in the network preference pane. Go to 'Show: Network port configrations' on both of your computers and drag the ethernet port to the top top of the list, above airport. Your computers will try to connect via ethernet first.
