This used to work just fine here at work but it has stopped working
because we have installed a G3 350 with MacOS 8.6

Now I am "losing" files - create a file on the Mac, save to shared
directory, file is invisible to Dreamweaver on Win NT Workstation...
Shared directory has .Appledouble etc

At home Mac files and Win files live in seperate folders and only .tif
scans move from one to the other. G3 400 with OS 8.6 there too.

It worked fine at work with iMac running MacOS 8.5 - no problems.

Cheers

Tony
