I have two Mac OS X clients. They can only see each other if I have Appletalk enabled. However at work, I am able to see my Mac OS X server when Appletalk isn't enabled. Can't two OS X clients see each other over TCP/IP. If so, any thought why they may not be showig up in the Go/Connect To Server/Local Network? Or is that not the proper way to establish a TCP/IP based network connection, and if not, then how do I?

Thanks,

Greg

Just type in the TCP/IP address in the Connect to Server window, and you should be able to connect to another computer with X, or even with 9 if the 9 Extensions include Shareway extension. I don't think you need to have AppleTalk enabled to do so.
