The server (don't know what OS it is running) would need to have
Appletalk (e.g. netatalk) running for the Mac to see it, or if it has
an ftp server run something like Fetch on the Mac to download required
files. Obviously the Mac will need to have TCP/IP configured and
running (don't use DHCP, use a manually assigned IP address).
I do this now for an old Mac running System 7.6 and I need to move
files to the Leopard machine.
