Default power steering leek-need help and quick like tonight asap

im having a problem- ive looked everywhere - cant find the leak checked everything i can think of - for some reason i have am loosing ps fluid every two days or so. i noticed that my tranny fluid seems to be leaking. are the two connected somehow? i know where the trany fluid is coming from - is it the same mineral type fluid are they connected somehow? any suggestions
i know this sounds a little strange but im truly perplexed cause ive even had my bro - who owns a shop check it out - and thats what we came up with - oh its a 97 a4 2.8

DID U PULL THE BOOTS BACK ON THE RACK ? THE FLUID WILL COLLECT IN THERE IF THE RACK IS LEAKING ,... I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM ON MY 01 A4 1.8T AND THATS WHERE THE LEAK WAS.

ps cooling tube and hoses hose are attached under the radiator and are usually the reason for leakage,remove plastic shield and you should see it.not part of transmission
