AppleShare?

Post by korperlich »

Anyone tried to run AppleShare 2.0.1 on System 6 recently?
All my installations start ok, but then when I run AppleShare Admin it quits with the message "The Desktop Manager is not open"...

Know how to get the Desktop Manager running?

BTW, I know that there's no networking in Mini vMac yet... Just poking at AShare as that's about the only piece of 68k software I still have on floppy...

Thanks!

Hello,
I know, I had Apple Share with my MacII, but that was long long time ago.
What do you want to do with MiniVMac actually?
You are certainly aware of the fact, that there is plenty of System6 software available:

Korperlich,

Welcome to the forum! I don't know the answer to your question, but like 24bit I can point out some OTHER stuff to do with Mini vMac. You can check out our own collection of software:

Those are all disk images that are ready to be mounted in Mini vMac. Just mount the images and play the games... you don't even have to unstuff 'em. The images contain multiple games.
