Networking for Macintosh OS X

Feature

Native networking support is now available in Goldenseal, starting with Goldenseal small business software version 4.2.

You can use a Mac OSX machine as server or client, without needing to use the Classic environment to run OS 9.

You can also have a mixed network of any combination of Windows, Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X machines. Any type of computer will work as either server or client.

This has been on our to-do list for a long time.

How to Use

To use Mac OS X as a server, just open any Goldenseal file that is marked to be a server.

To use Mac OS X as a client, double-click on the Goldenseal program icon (picture of tree), hit Cancel in the file open window, and then choose Open as Client from the File menu.
