iTunes/iPhoto sharing won't work for me.
iMac DVSE 400 (Aiport 3.3) Acts as my software base station.
12" PB 867 Airport 3.3.
Both use OS X v. 10.3.2
I have Personal sharing enabled.
Rendezvous enabled in Directory access.
Sharing is enabled in iPhoto and iTunes preferences.
Can't see iTunes or iPhoto libraries from either machine.
No sharing going on. (Other than airport and printer.)
Any ideas?

If yes: reinstalling ilife could help
if no: install ilife 04 (family pack) on both macs
ope this helps

Yes. I have iLife 04 installed. I will try your suggestion and see what happens.
Ebby,
Not using a firewall.
I was thinking back that when I installed Panther that I had the problem after using disc 1 it would ask you to insert the next disc and it wouldn't recognize the number on the disc. Disc 2 I think was the iapps and Disc 3 more fonts, and languages. I was already up to date with the iapps and didn't want the stuff on disc 3 so I didn't do anything.
Have done both OS X updates since and added iLife so don't know if any of that could be it.
Launch iChat on each machine, open the Rendevouz buddy window (Cmd-2). If nothing, assume that this is the problem.
Thanks. When I turn on iChat on both, I get a Message Window alert that says,
"Could not connect to Rendezvous.
NSNetServices error -72000, domain 10"
Both buddy lists say available.
edit: We can still chat but I am assuming that this is by logging into AIM. When the rendezvous message comes up, I also get the message that the other user cancelled the connection.
edit 2: Just got this reply from another forum.
"It's probably because the iMac is a software base station.
Under the Network System Preference it probably has a real IP address from your ISP while your PowerBook probably has a 192.168.1.xxx type address.
I believe for Rendezvous to work you both have to be in the same subnet (which I think means all the numbers in the IP address are the same until the last .xxx).
You might be able to use something like Network Beacon to allow what you want to be done, but that's above my head but hopefully not someone else's."
My iMac is the software base station and it is the one that generates the rendezvous error window in iChat.
