Not sure if this is applicable in your situation, but I'm running Netatalk under Slackware 13 (upgraded from Slackware 12.1). After my upgrade, I noticed that I couldn't connect t…

I would concentrate on getting AFP going. At least that is what netatalk is good at doing.

Porter, Thanks a lot. That was interesting. I removed (well, commented) the config line in the atalkd.conf and restarted services, then power cycled the AsanteTalk. when I check…

I would clear the address and zone information from your netatalk.conf. Zones only make sense to netatalk if it is active on multiple network cards and acting as a bridge between …

If I unplug the AsanteTalk for a minute, the Mac tells me that the AppleTalk network is not available. If I then plug it in I do get the alert from the Mac that the AppleTalk netwo…

Once the machines are all up and running and you think everything should be working, unplug the power to the AsanteTalk, wait a minute, then and re apply the power to it. This sho…

.conf file stuff: from atalkd.conf: fxp0 -seed -phase 2 -net 1-1000 -addr 1000.142 -zone "weif" This seems to match what I see in /var/log/messages afpd.conf is empty (except t…

the AsanteTalk packaging says it allows your ethernet Mac "to communicate with up to eight LocalTalk devices, including LocalTalk Macintoshes and LocalTalk supported printers." I w…

Thanks for all the tips, everyone. Yes, the kernel was compiled with netatalk enabled. I don't see any errors (at least nothing I think are errors) in /var/log/messages when I st…

Unless the Asante bridge is one of those "crippled" bridges that only work with printers, I suspect it's just "dumb" bridge and will happily shunt AppleTalk packets back and forth …

Thanks Phreakout! I tried booting the SE/30 from a floppy while holding down the shift key, but that didn't do the trick. While I'm waiting for your OS disks, is there any method …

Thanks Phreakout! I tried booting the SE/30 from a floppy while holding down the shift key, but that didn't do the trick. While I'm waiting for your OS disks, is there any method…

I'm actually more interested in the Asante box. Do you have another known-good Mac you can put on the other side of the bridge to make sure that the Asante is routing AppleTalk cor…

Interesting. Huh. Just for kicks, try rebooting again, but this time hold down the Shift key. This will prevent any extensions or the like from loading. If this doesn't wor…

OK guys, excellent suggestions. I have some good news and some bad news. The Macintosh Classic I have now is indeed a Classic 1. Following Phreakout's instructions, I successfully…

No, the issue at hand is that you're not supposed to change that extension (even if it seems as small as image. to img. no matter what. phreakout's suggestion is very good (I forg…

Dita, did you say earlier you have a Mac Classic, recently acquired? If so, is it a Classic 1 or Classic 2? If it's a Classic 1, then try the following: Step 1: Restart the Cla…

That was a thought I had, but JLW's original instructions stated that PC floppies are fine, so I never changed the formatting.

I formatted the a floppy as a 1.44 MB FAT disk Click to expand... I don't believe you will be able to use a FAT formatted floppy as a boot disk. It must be formatted HFS.

Actually, got 3 copies of the manuals. Also was given a bunch o books on it, and just a ton of goodies! Click to expand... How fortunate for you. Make sure to read the manuals…

Thanks JRL. The only difference I encountered with those instructions is as follows: 1. Wen I de-compress the Network Access archive using StuffIt Expander (per your original inst…

It'd be handy to know a bit more about your Netatalk setup (maybe post relevant parts of the config files: atalkd.conf and AppleVolumes,default would be good). Did you re-compile…

You mean an Apple IIe? Either way, nice score...especially for the price! One thing about the Apple II series machines...if you don't have a monitor, you should be able to use …

I was doing that from memory, so I might have done something wrong. However, right now I have my copy open here, and you have to do the following: 1: Make sure you have a file cal…

Just got one yesterday for free! Drove 45 minutes to get it. I got 6 boxes of disks with it, a bunch of software, 2 drives, and all the manuals with it. Actually, got 3 copies o…
