That's what I was thinking. I'm in the process of upgrading a set of
iMacs from Mac OS 9 to Mac OS X 10.4 and the stupid things keep falling
off the network.

The other problem is that the Mac OS 10.4 machines can no longer
connect to the remaining Mac OS 9 computers. I get some message about
using a different version of AFP. Not really a problem since all our
iMacs will be using the same OS anyway (eventually), but could be
annoying to others.
