| Posted by: skyhawk3355 on 2024-12-23 17:09:29 Hi All, I've downloaded Appleshare Server 3.x from Mac Garden and Mac Repository, moved the file over with the Bluescsi file transfer, and when I unarchive it I'm missing any executables or actual program files. AppleShare3 - Macintosh RepositoryAppleShare3 Fileserver. Includes IIe boot files.

Thanks for your help | |

| Posted by: NJRoadfan on 2024-12-23 19:02:41 The AppleShare 3 printer and file servers appear in folders after extraction. The archive is working fine and I have installed on System 7.1 without issue. | |
| Posted by: skyhawk3355 on 2024-12-24 08:10:01 Hm very interesting. What are you using to unarchive the file? I'm using stuffit expander 5.5 and it's unarchiving hqx and sit automatically (albeit wrongly unarchiving). The only folder that shows up is the Apple II Setup folder.  | |

| Posted by: skyhawk3355 on 2024-12-26 12:24:07 Okay - I was able to unpack it correctly on mini vmac. I copied the files to a blank dsk image, threw it on the emu, and was able to copy and launch the programs. Very strange. Thanks for the help, all.  | |
