.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 …
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…

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…
Thanks for the follow ups. FYI.... I am running 7.5.5 and the only resolution choice in "Monitors" settings is 512x384.
Oh well. I was holding off on doing the 640x480 hack, fig…

You most certainly can share a CD over LocalTalk - you just can't BOOT from it. I have installed OS 8 over LocalTalk, booted off a custom boot floppy with System 7.6, and a few oth…
Currently trying to put an FTP client on the mac. I put a FTP server on my Windows box, so hopefully, I can transfer Netscape that way.
(unstuffing this takes forever....)

I removed the jumper from the card.
I made the flashing light go away by plugging the cable into an older switch I had, now it's a constant on.
After this I am now getting an IP …

No. It is not possible. You can change the resolution with some versions of the monitor control panel but the picture does not actually change (i.e. get wider). This setting was sp…
Yea like the poster above me said what you can do will work, and thats the best bet, I would get the "network floppy" to reinstall 8.1 and use speed dubbler
but thats just me. so …

I installed Open Transport on my mac.
I was having issues with the card not being recognized by the installer software, but after some messing around, it was then detected.
I not…

You can share a CD over AppleTalk, from any machine with File Sharing turned on and with full privileges set for the user in question, and yes, as has been reported, you can instal…

Well, it looks like my card is installed.
The driver disk has MacTCP on it, and I installed that. But, in the Network control panel, there is only EtherTALK, not ethernet.
Do I …
