The saga continues....

Anyways, it turns out that a Micromodem II card in slot 2 was making
things act funky--so I pulled it out.  So now I get zones &
laserprinters, and can mount volumes, etc, etc, etc.

All is not well though.  I cannot copy files from the fileserver--it
seems to start reading the file from the server, but then gives me a
Error #8053 before it starts writing anything.  I can copy files TO the
fileserver just fine (and people with Macs can read them just fine).
I tried putting up a shrinkit archive of a few files and then pulled up
GS Shrinkit to unpack the archive from the fileserver.  It said the
archive was damaged, and showed me just the first file in the archive
(and refused to extract it).

After booting into GSOS, I then try starting up Appleworks 2.0 (modified
with Applied Engineering's mods for various things which I can't even
remember what they are now...sigh.)  When it's about to ask me to press
return (or spacebar--whatever the first prompt is), it dumps into the
monitor at $04/8002.  So much for printing!

Does the fact that I can get this far mean the network is AFP 2.0?  I
plan to try to find out for sure tomorrow, but a lot seems to work,
enough that it appears it HAS to be version 2.0.

In conclusion, my main concern right now is to figure out why I can't
copy files from the server...since I'd love to be able to backup my hard
drive to the server.
