A teacher in the local school system contacted us.  He is trying
to set up a bunch of IIgs diskless workstations;  they are
supposed to be able to boot off of a Mac SE/30 as a server.

A search of our Apple "Information Source" CD shows that this
is possible;  unfortunately, the various problems listed do not
seem to be the cause of his troubles.

What happens is this:
     Starts everything up
     IIgs stations begin blipping messages onto their screens
     time goes by
     each IIgs halts with a complaint that it is looking for 
          an AFP file server.

Any clues?  I'm not familiar with the IIgs, but will be happy to 
try and pass on tips to him;  he has no Usenet access.

Thanks in advance
