Well, I've just had a play with this and its "almost" working.
I have the Newt connected directly (per 10/100BT wire) to the Airport
BaseStation Extreme. I can initiate a TCP/IP dock connection. This
proceeds as expected and I get an IP address issued to the Newt
(10.0.1.3). Promising so far. Trouble is, I then get a "Choose a
Server" dialog, but no servers appear. If I close this dialog, I get
disconnected.
Anybody got any ideas ?
wtia,
mark.
