Hi guys

I just tried booting into OS 9.2.2 (usually on OSX, which works very well), installing a new LW Pro 4.0.2--no VM--and couldn't get it to connect.

I think it was because the loading of the shared files takes so long and so much processor power, and the Apple's Java for Classic is really buggy. I ran out of time to get it working, but I'll try again tomorrow and let you know.

I was able to install and connect a few weeks ago on both 9.2.2 and a Powerbook 5300 running 8.6, so it should work if I can just remember the settings required, where the java pieces need to be located, and all that other stuff.

I'll let you know how it goes, and if there's a problem with 4.0.2, sberlin the LW developer who knows Classic best might have some suggestions.

In the meantime, check out http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=23077 for some background, and there was a post I can't find just now about where to relocate the Shared folder that seemed to help.

Sorry I can't help more just now.
Thank you Stief for replying & taking the time to try to figure out our problem.

I went to the link you provided. Apparently the solution is for an older version of LW as I could not find the code they were talking about in v4.0.
Where did you get v4.0.2? I could not find a any info on that version. The download page confirmed v4.0 is the latest!

I used Sherlock to locate the "Shared folder which was in the Preference folder. It's empty as I am disconnected, unable to connect to be able to "share anything".

Hopefully, you and/or the LW developer will come up with a solution for us OS 9.x MAC users shortly.

Thanks again.
