It is Mac OS 7.6.1 with Open Transport 1.1.2 and TCP/IP 1.1.2, but DHCP is not an option. Would that possibly require a full '040 instead of the LC040 or a PPC 601?

The options for configuration in the Open Transport TCP/IP control panel are "Using MacIP Server" and "Using MacIP Manually," there isn't an option for DHCP. Where should I be looking for this?

hello again. I have a Q605 which is successfully connected to my local network through an AsanteTalk. I can move files back and forth between my FreeBSD machines and the Quadra (despite Asante tech support stating that you can't). However, it would be nice to let the cute little Q605 see the...

Thanks. That did it. I can connect to the server from the Mac, and transfer files. Now to see if I can get macipgw to compile... Interestingly enough, the response from Asante (which took several days) is that (despite the labeling?) that only slow macintoshes can be on the LocalTalk side of...

Porter, Thanks a lot. That was interesting. I removed (well, commented) the config line in the atalkd.conf and restarted services, then power cycled the AsanteTalk. when I checked from both sides to see if they could see each other, there was nothing. After a couple minutes, I tried again and...

If I unplug the AsanteTalk for a minute, the Mac tells me that the AppleTalk network is not available. If I then plug it in I do get the alert from the Mac that the AppleTalk network is available (well, after a minute or so). However, the Mac still doesn't see a server, and the FreeBSD machine...

On the battery thing, johnklos is right. If you get a chime, then the system is ready to load. However, as JRL said, switch it off and back on right away and see if it boots. When the battery has died on my Q605, flipping it on, letting it chime, then switching it off and back on again will...

.conf file stuff: from atalkd.conf: fxp0 -seed -phase 2 -net 1-1000 -addr 1000.142 -zone "weif" This seems to match what I see in /var/log/messages afpd.conf is empty (except the comments it ships with), because the default sounded fine from what I read in the documentation...

the AsanteTalk packaging says it allows your ethernet Mac "to communicate with up to eight LocalTalk devices, including LocalTalk Macintoshes and LocalTalk supported printers." I would assume that that means that it just shunts all AppleTalk/LocalTalk packets without discrimination.

Thanks for all the tips, everyone. Yes, the kernel was compiled with netatalk enabled. I don't see any errors (at least nothing I think are errors) in /var/log/messages when I start netatalk, and netatalk does start on boot. However, now that I have sharing enabled (and a folder shared) on...

My Quadra 605 running MacOS 7.6 does not see the shares on my FreeBSD 7.2 with Netatalk running. I can confirm that afpd and atalkd are running. The network is currently Q605 -> PhoneNet LocalTalk -> AsanteTalk Bridge -> 10base-T hub -> DSL modem (as 10/100base-T hub) -> FreeBSD...

um... OK. are you sure? I remember, in the past (though this was a decade ago), doing this by just switching the control in the TCP/IP control panel to use AppleTalk and then setting the IP address and making sure the Mac in question was connected to an AppleTalk network... Do you think that...

I got a 10baseT hub and have the AsanteTalk connected through that, so the series is kind of like: Q605 -> LocalTalk PhoneNet adapter -> (PhoneNet cable i.e. phone cord, but actually the one that came with my PhoneNet adapters when I got them way back when) LocalTalk PhoneNet adapter...

I'm having trouble getting my Quadra 605 connected to the internet through my LAN and DSL modem. The DSL modem is a Motorola Netopia 3347. The DSL connection is through Qwest. I have it connected to the Mac via ethernet to an AsanteTalk, then LocalTalk to the Quadra. The Mac is running 7.6.1...
