How can I connect my Mac computers to a network with Windows PCs via FireNet™?
You’ll need to install a Windows 2000 Server with Services for Macintosh. In this case, Mac computers will be able to use a file-share directory in the Windows 2000 Server computer. For more information and directions on how to install Services for Mac, refer to Appendix E: FireNet and Mac OS. Alternatively, if you don’t have a Windows 2000 Server, there are third-party utilities which can connect your Mac computers with any Windows 98/WinMe or Windows 2000 Professional PC. The most widely known are Dave and Pc MacLan (http://www.miramar.com/). • Although I have PC MacLan or Dave, my Mac cannot communicate with my Windows system(s). You probably have Firewire support Version 2.7 or later installed in your MacOS 9.x. With this version Apple changed the address of the Configuration ROM and made it totally incompatible with Microsoft Firewire support. The only way to handle this problem is to revert to Version 2.5. You can download this version of Firewire, from our web site: http://www.u
