    Tech by Androda Comm slot ethernet card

    Does it work with the generic RTL8139 driver put out by RealTek for classic MacOS? CommSlot II devices are PCI, so the driver should work. The driver even comes with instructions for changing the PCI vendor and device IDs to work with a particular card.

    Mac OS 7.6.1 on a Beige G3

    My G4 upgraded PowerSurge machines ran 7.5.3 and 7.6 without any problem. Its not the CPU.

    TashRouter: An AppleTalk Router

    This maybe a bug in Netatalk. I "unpatched" the kernel module and looked at the logs. Netatalk sends out duplicate NBP Reply packets even with the unpatched module, the difference is that the origin address in the DDP header is all the same. Its sending out one for each interface on the machine...

    TashRouter: An AppleTalk Router

    I did post a note on the patch author's gist regarding the issue. I am trying to determine the source of the problem first before escalating.

    TashRouter: An AppleTalk Router

    Note for those running Linux kernel 6.9 or newer. It appears that a regression has been introduced that NBPReply packets are being duplicated and sent out with a source address of 0.0 whenever netatalk replies to NBP Requests. These packets will crash TashRouter and leave it running in an...

    Of stuffit and resource forks

    The image works fine, just the filetype and creator need to be set and Disk Copy opens it up. Unzip the .dsk file and copy it to your BlueSCSI image. Using ResEdit, set the filetype to 'dImg' and creator to 'dCpy'

    Of stuffit and resource forks

    By default, Finder should treat anything with a filetype of APPL as an application and attempt to launch it if double clicked. Self extracting archives should NOT have a resource fork by design. EDIT: Nevermind, doesn't work. Most of the time these files are wrapped in BinHEX or MacBinary...

    Looking for Apple ImageWriter I Manual Part II

    I have the Apple IIc version. Both parts are contained in a book simply titled "Apple IIc Imagewriter Manual". It covers programming and escape codes. Most all of these are covered in the later "ImageWriter II Technical Reference Manual". Some bits of the original Imagewriter manual can be found...

    Releasing AirTalk: Wireless plug-and-play LocalTalk dongle

    Any trusty Linksys WRT-54G running ddWRT or other Linux firmware can shuttle AppleTalk just fine. Both OpenWRT and ddWRT appear to support the proper packet translation. I have a modern "pocket" router from GL.iNet (stock firmware is OpenWRT based) that works just fine with AppleTalk. Also keep...

    Netatalk 4.0 - Future-proofing Apple File Sharing

    It involved a lot of cursing. The previous maintainer of code from roughly 2009 to 2013 was terrible at actually leaving comments on commits. Things were changed and moved around without any explanation of "why" and most of those commits were HUGE. It also didn't help that there were obvious...

    Upgrading FastPath 4 to FastPath 5?

    The boot PROMs really aren't that important on the FastPath 5, there is nothing to flash. They are only used to bootstrap the device with a VROM and K-STAR file.

    NetBoot OS 9 from a Modern Linux Server

    I don't expect the dinky DHCP server in my router to respond to netboot stuff. I was mostly worried about Kea deciding to hijack DHCP duties and start assigning addresses to all my other devices on the network. Forcing Kea to respond to only BOOTP requests would be ideal.

    Farallon LocalPath

    Did a LocalTalk scanner actually exist? Everything Apple sold was SCSI re-brands from Canon and the like.

    Farallon LocalPath

    This basically duplicates what Apple's LocalTalk Bridge Control Panel did. Would be curious if it did the same fooling of LocalTalk clients using RTMP that Apple's product did.

    Netatalk 4.0 - Future-proofing Apple File Sharing

    Apple removed the Postscript converter that was built into the OS libraries, which is really annoying. It was nice having Preview automatically convert PS files.

    Netatalk 4.0 - Future-proofing Apple File Sharing

    This is coming once CUPS 3.0 starts to materialize into a working product. What version of macOS is this? It likely never worked anyway.........Apple long since effectively forked CUPS 2.3 into their own build for macOS while the community maintains it on other platforms still. They likely...

    NetBoot OS 9 from a Modern Linux Server

    Does this setup interfere with another DHCP server on a network serving addresses, or is kea strictly broadcasting BOOTP packets? I might give this a spin, but don't want it screwing around with address assignments on other devices.
