    DNS issues while using serial for internet

    I may have fixed it with a few iptables rules: #first do this sudo echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward #then these sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -j MASQUERADE sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i ppp0 -p tcp...

    DNS issues while using serial for internet

    I decided to use the method found in a reply on my thread/tutorial for using serial for internet on a mac. This shows details on how to use a Raspberry PI instead of a mac to achieve the same result. Everything went just fine, but again, I cannot access any outside domains. MacWeb returns...

    The NoCSS development thread

    The chat is complete and functional now. "Main" room should be used for introductions. "Vintage" is for vintage computer stuff. "Spam" is for everything else. Edit: not sure why Lynx shows the meta refresh but doesn't use it

    The NoCSS development thread

    The login and registration system is completed. It will automatically check if your browser supports cookies, and choose how to login based on that. Pretty cool if you ask me. I'll post pictures of the site running on my Mac Classic soon.

    Macintosh Plus BBS Surfing

    I had never heard of this until now. I might have to get my Plus on a BBS as well! Edit: seems it's almost over, oh well.

    The NoCSS development thread

    The entire site will also support a "text only" mode, which removes all the <HTML> <HEAD> etc and the title and meta tags.

    The NoCSS development thread

    On this thread you will find current progress and updates for my website "NoCSS". This is a site designed to function on 80s computers, and will have simple features such as chat, a web proxy, a google search system, and more. It will all function well on old computers due to stripping out...

    Connecting old Macintosh to the net using serial

    I never had any luck with Linux... I tried for a good hour, the PPPd just wasn't the same as the Mac one. Try using my proxy script and hosting it on your local internet. I was never able to access pages past my local internet from my old mac. Basically the script downloads the website using...

    Apple PowerCD "portable" CD ROM drive

    If you want to get rid of it I'm sure you'd get plenty of offers in the trading section.

    Apple PowerCD "portable" CD ROM drive

    It's totally useful. It's a SCSI cd reader! Could probably use that with an old mac to install one of the operating systems that were more popular on CD than floppy.

    Macintosh Photoshoot

    These aren't exactly "new" macs, but I haven't really posted pictures of my entire collection. They are all completely functional (except for certain issues with the iBook G3). At some point I'd like to get a non-macintosh computer to add to the collection. Probably something from the II or...

    MacBook!

    If you care at all about running PPC apps, do NOT upgrade to 10.7.... I learned that the hard way :( In all honesty, I wouldn't upgrade to 10.7. It didn't benefit me enough for me to care, it only made it so I couldn't run powerpc apps.

    MacBook!

    not bad! For that cost you could shove the full 4gb and OS X 10.7 and still not pay that much.

    Connecting old Macintosh to the net using serial

    very cool! Didn't get a chance to check it out, thanks for posting the site in a reply. Haven't been very active lately with my NoCSS site... My hope is to get a google search system figured out within the next week, and try to fix my web proxy so there isn't a massive security issue.

    Connecting old Macintosh to the net using serial

    really cool! I like the raspberry PI usage, looked like you all are having fun on the net with your compact macs!
