2 Macs Connection Failure

Question

While both volumes appear in each Mac's Finder, I get connection failures each way. "The Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in "afp://10.0.1.4" could not be read or written. (Error code -36).
I took the laptop into a Mac dealer and was able to establish a connection.
The computers are a powerbook G4 and an iMac dual core 2, both with OS 10.5.6. The iMac is connected via ethernet and the pb by AE.

Answer 1

No problem
These would most likely be the folders you see
/Developer
/Library <---------This one
/opt
/System <---------This one
/Users
/Applications
the marked folders you see are most likely to have caused this, sorry mate but im not THAT familiar with the OS files system to point you out a more specific folder.
Theoretical:
You should be able to restore these folder without any issues
/Developer
/opt
/Users
/Applications
only problem is that i dont know if these last folders have any dependencies in the /System or /Library folder, if they do something will go wrong down the track.
You could try only omitting the /System and /Library folder and see what happens, you might be fine or you might get some more funny issues to post here :P
