Does anyone know how to network a Mac Mini to a Mac Pro 5.1 either by cable, wifi or both?
Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks
The Mac Mini is running Monterey and the MacPro I believe is running High Sierra 10.13.6 (hope that helps.)

If you will be moving a lot of files regularly, connecting both Macs to your Router (NOT directly to each other!) with Ethernet cabling will give you consistently fast, trouble-free, data highway for File sharing to work across.
Your ethernet cables need to have all eight wires present, else you will be limited to baseband speeds of 100 M bits/sec.
As long as the 2 Macs are on the same network, simply go to System Preferences > Sharing and turn on File Sharing. That Mac will now be visible on the other Mac.
