I used to have MiamiTCP running Samba fileserver on my A1200 with a Cnet CN40BC PCMCIA network card, which made sharing file a charm :). Due to a bug in the PCMCIA port one had to remove the card and reinsert after the amiga was switched on, so it will recognise the card. I even had MiamiTCP dishing out IP-adresses and surfed shared the net from a peecee that way.


You could take out the hard drive, hook it to the PC (using a 2.5" to 3.5" IDE adapter if needed)



Back in the olden days, a friend of mine soldred a 3.5" ribbon cable onto the A1200 mobo, allowing the use of ATAPI cd-rom and a 2.5Gb IDE harddisk.
