Hi everybody,
I am trying to set up my LC III for networking and I can't seem to figure it out. It has an ethernet card in one of those weird pre-PCI slots (are they called NUBUS or something else?) I think the brand is Farallon or something, I had downloaded the driver and installed it on there.
Let me go through the list of things I have done, maybe I did something out of order.
1. I originally did a clean install of Macintosh System 7.5 (not 7.5.3, just 7.5)
2. I installed the ethernet driver.
3. I installed MacTCP
4. I ended up upgrading to Mac OS 7.6, because for some reason there is some kind of bug with 7.5 where the operating system always uses all the RAM save for 5MB, which is not enough to run any kind of browser.
5. Since I have 7.6 and TCP/IP, I uninstalled MacTCP.
So now I configured the ethernet manually and have it plugged into my switch, which is connected to a bunch of raspberry pi devices that I have various uses for. I have one that runs a simple nginx web server. No matter what I put into the URL it just times out.
I am stumped. Can someone point me in the right direction?
