I have old plaster walls. How can i attach the baseboards to it? I am afraid if i try to shoot a nail through the baseboard it will break the plaster. What have you guys done?

Unless your trying to use spikes a finish nails not going to hurt it unless it's in really bad shape.
See if you can located the studs by looking along the bottom plate area.
A stud finders not going to work on plaster because of the lath.
