Yes, I will be distributing a beta copy of the PPP code for people to test. I will probably have something in early May. This weekend, I plan to get enough of the PPP Automaton written to establish a PPP connection. Yes, I have been looking for this source code.

You know I was thinking about MacWorks earlier this week. I always develop my code according to Inside Macintosh, and I do not plan on accessing the SCC hardware directly. My TCP/IP should be compatible with a Lisa 2 running MacWorks, and it will certainly be compatible with System 6 and System...

You need to configure the SCC in your software. Or use SerialDMA.

I recommend FreeTerm 2.0 for the terminal emulator, or ClarisWorks 2.1v3 if you've got a newer Mac. The hardest part is making the cable, but if you get a KeySpan USA-28X adapter, you can use a standard Apple printer cable.

OK, now I understand your objective better. The clock can be supplied through one of the pins on the Mac's serial ports. It's one of the handshaking pins. The first-generation Macintosh hard disks like the Tecmar MacDrive provided a clock to operate at around 700 or so kilobaud.

You should configure the SCC in software. I have attached the Zilog manual that you will need. It is difficult to understand this manual at first, as it is not so well organized, but after you look at some sample source codes too, you will understand it better. The file SCC.SDLC.Asm is what I...

Yeah, I was bewildered by the number of variations on PPP. There's even PPP sent through UDP datagrams. But I have a much better understanding of it now, so I know where I'm headed with this.  :b&w:

Your site is a great resource, by the way, and was part of the inspiration for me to work on this project. I have good news now. Today was much more productive. Now that I understand PPP's low-level framing and data encapsulation, I rewrote my code and at 3:31pm this afternoon sent the first...

Thanks for the feedback; much appreciated. :-) But I've got some bad news, bears!  :-O  It turns out that PPP is not going to be such a walk in the park to implement as I thought it would be yesterday. This is not a show-stopper, but just some extra challenges for me the implementor to...

A few years ago I wrote a TCP/IP stack called Marina for Apple II. I've spent the past two days looking into how to get TCP/IP on the original Mac 128K and 512K in a way that makes it accessible the greatest number of people, but also affords opportunities for application development: telnet...

Yeah, there's not a whole lot to go on at this point. My next thought is the keyboard cable, but you say it appears to be a genuine Apple cable.

This may be a long-shot, but I'll post it here because it happened to me. If the keyboard mapping software on your startup disk is corrupted, the keyboard won't work. There are two INIT resources in the system file, one for the main keyboard, the other for the numeric keypad. If these INITs...

Me neither. I think that serial number format is a little different, and that keyboard was more likely manufactured in December 1983. Open it and check the date codes on the ICs.

That thing is mentioned in the book Upgrading and Repairing Macs.

Nice. Thanks for the followup.

Probably not. Those CRTs were slightly bluish even in the 1980s.

Disk Copy may not be necessary for you and may actually be a hindrance. You can use the Finder to make boot disks. Disk Copy isn't essential.  If you can get the "bare" System and Finder file for anything from 1984 System 1.0 thru System 4.1/Finder 5.5 (which is the range of versions that the...

A clear chime + Sad Mac could be either a failed ROM checksum test, or a failed memory test. But the fact that you hear the chime at all means that enough logic is working that the CPU is able to execute the instructions from ROM to make that chime and then later on show a Sad Mac on the screen...

You might already have everything you need. What is the oldest System/Finder version that you have among the SE and Plus? I'm not asking about disk images, but real floppies or HD. Is it older than System 6?
