Hello!
I just played around with some old Compact Macs and tried to get MacIP with MacTCP running on my Macintosh Classic running System 7.1. I've installed MacTCP 2.0.6 and selected the LocalTalk port but as soon as I try to ping an ip address with MacTCP-Watcher the Mac crashes with Trap 12.
My Color Classic works with MacIP over TCP/IP (OpenTransport) running 7.6.1.
It is a lot of fun, when you start Internet Explorer 2.1 and the first page you see is from Microsoft with the message "time to update your browser" . But you must be patient :beige:
Just to explain: MacIP is a technique to capsuled TCP/IP-pakets into AppleTalk-pakets and sent it over a LocalTalk link. You need a router that support en-/capsulation of TCP into AppleTalk (IPNetRouter).
Bye,
eweri
