TOPIC

    When I try to open the Network Browser application, a dialog appears saying: "'Network Browser' is unable to launch because your system software is not configured properly."

    What must I do to correct this?


DISCUSSION

    Under Mac OS 9, this message indicates that the AppleShare client has been disabled. Network Browser requires the AppleShare extension to be enabled.

    Under Mac OS 8.x, when AppleShare is disabled, the error message from Network Browser is different. It says: "Could not connect to 'at:'. This URL is not correct. Please verify it and retry."
