Question : Problem: How to clear a network connection caches

Hi,

We have one MAC OS9 and having a trouble with connecting to a network storage device, which Appletalk protocol is enabled.
We have two same network storage devices. After restarting one of them (say device A), when try to connect to the share folder of the device A from the OS9 Chooser, it just hangs. Whereas connecting to the other one device B is no problem.
Before the restart of the device A, I never accessed to the device B.

I heard it somewhere before that I can clear caches of the past network connections and if there is such, I wonder where it is..

Thanks in advance.  

Answer : Problem: How to clear a network connection caches

Navigate to "System Folder" > Preferences, and try setting aside (move to the Desktop, for example):
Apple Share Prep

and restart the machine.

If problems worsen or persist (from the same location) pull out AppleTalk, File sharing, TCP/IP
and reboot. Verify network settings for TCP/IP and AppleTalk.

And I have to say: OS 9 ? Wow ! I hope you're making appropriate plans to migrate to current hardware with available parts or even better warranty coverage.
