    Amiga: the fastest 68k Mac

    Keep in mind that the Zorro bus was being developed by pretty much ONE person, Dave Haynie. No surprise it took a few revisions of the Buster chip to get stuff working. Reading the war stories can be funny at times. Things like "EISA got this nice feature, might as well add it to Zorro while...

    TashRouter: An AppleTalk Router

    OK, seems that atalkd is working now... just have to get TashRouter running at the same time!

    TashRouter: An AppleTalk Router

    There should be RTMP traffic on vioif0, at a minimum it should be broadcasting two tuples for networks 2 and 3 that atalkd is setup for. TashRouter appears to be working correctly, its routing table has all three networks. One last test, shut down TashRouter and restart atalkd. See if you are...

    TashRouter: An AppleTalk Router

    Things seem to be communicating. Don't know what is causing the zone error, unless TashRouter isn't replying to the requests from atalkd for a zone list. On your Ethernet network, run Wireshark with the "atalk" filter. You should see the RTMP packets every 10 seconds, and expanding them should...

    TashRouter: An AppleTalk Router

    Odd, but it may be a regression from fixes on Linux to prevent NBPReplies coming from the loopback. Can you setup atalkd as follows: See if Macs on your main network trigger NBPReplys.

    TashRouter: An AppleTalk Router

    TashRouter is now working over AppleTalk, the AARP lookup/reply shows that. LToUDP traffic shouldn't be going over the tap interface at all. On Linux, TashRouter's LToUDP always seems to correctly select the main NIC and send out packets in my setup. I do have the problem with Minivmac on...

    TashRouter: An AppleTalk Router

    Here is a sample output from one of my test VMs with A2SERVER. I manually started TashRouter (6502.183) and then atalkd (6502.16). 21:20:22.418742 aarp probe 6502.183 tell 6502.183 <-- TashRouter AARP Probe 21:20:22.622576 aarp probe 6502.183 tell 6502.183 21:20:22.823363 aarp probe 6502.183...

    TashRouter: An AppleTalk Router

    atalkd is emitting the right packets. When you fire up TashRouter, does anything pop up? You should see a burst of AARP probes from TashRouter at a minimum, then eventually periodic RTMP packets roughly every 10 seconds. You will see them from both atalkd's address (3.17) and TashRouter's address.

    TashRouter: An AppleTalk Router

    Something isn't working still. Maybe TashRouter still needs tweaking to work with a tap interface on NetBSD. If everything was working properly, atalkd should have sent a ZIP GetNetInfo packet over the tap interface, and TashRouter would have responded with the setup information. Running...

    TashRouter: An AppleTalk Router

    Set TashRouter's seed_network_max=3. The seed configuration between the two routers has to match (network range 3-3, zone name "EtherTalk Network"). Also, you likely have to create the tap interface as root and run TashRouter as root. This was the case under Linux. Optionally, you can setup...

    TashRouter: An AppleTalk Router

    Save yourself the hassle and use atalkd to route between your host network interface and the tap interface. Yes, that involves an extra hop over a virtual bridge, but it will save your sanity of VM routing. In A2SERVER, I have tashrouter linked to atalkd using a tap interface called tash0. In...

    Amiga: the fastest 68k Mac

    There was a bit of a cottage industry of emulating the Mac on both the Amiga and Atari ST. Compared to the Mac, they were pretty cheap to buy, plus they had higher resolution graphics vs. an actual Mac Plus! The Amiga could do 640x400 interlaced black and white graphics, while the ST with a...

    TWAIN (film) Scanning

    VueScan supports all these old scanners out of the box on modern machines. Assuming you have a SCSI interface to plug them into of course.

    Questions about Apple IIGS and ADTPro serial connection

    Make sure the serial cable actually works and is plugged into a RS-232 serial port, not the 25pin female parallel port! Open up HyperTerminal and the serial port your cable is plugged into. On the IIgs from a BASIC prompt, type PR#1, and then start typing stuff, you should get some output on the...

    68KMLA Featured on ArsTechnica!

    Apple isn't the only one with silk screen errors on their boards. The A3640 68040 processor card that came in the Amiga 4000 had a few backwards caps from the factory too.

    Netatalk 4.0 - Future-proofing Apple File Sharing

    Linking OpenLDAP libraries appears to be the correct thing to do. Apple has "LDAP.framework" labelled as "do not use" and clearly that is the case. Folks are having App Store submissions rejected over this. Officially, LDAP appears to be handled by the Open Directory framework. Seems like a...

    Netatalk 4.0 - Future-proofing Apple File Sharing

    Here is a response direct from DTS regarding the whole thing: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/737464?answerId=764686022#764686022 Basically, if you aren't using Cocoa and stick with POSIX calls, you should be fine. What libraries are being linked by afpd? With regards to @robin-fo's...

    Netatalk 4.0 - Future-proofing Apple File Sharing

    The use of fork() is not obsolete on macOS. The issue is Objective-C, which Netatalk doesn't use: https://sealiesoftware.com/blog/archive/2017/6/5/Objective-C_and_fork_in_macOS_1013.html
