LC-III Ethernet

Author	Topic
Hemant Kamat Starting Member India 22 Posts	Posted - 16 Apr 2003 : 10:48:16 Need your help guys; I'm trying to get my LC-III networked to my TiBook G4 over a cross cable - I've assigned IPs to both, Asante MCLC card is recognized by the LC-III, activity LEDs flicker, but neither is able to ping/connect to the other. Any suggestions?

You might need to upgrade the version of AppleTalk or something - - - - - - - - - - - - - A little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it sure beats a blank stare for starting a conversation. 68k ParaMedic
Hemant Kamat Starting Member India 22 Posts	Posted - 08 May 2003 : 21:24:11 Whew! Finally, it's done. Thing is, old cards such as the MacCon and MCiLC from Asante do not support autonegotiating hubs (ie. 10/100Mbps). Since the iBook, TiBook, or iMac for that matter, all carry autonegotiating ethernet slots, crossover cables are out of the question. The solution is to use a 10BaseT hub. To connect OS 6.x or 7.x to OS X, here's an excellent link: http://www.euronet.nl/users/mvdk/osx.html Here's the killer that got it done for me: You will need to enable AppleShare via AppleTalk in Mac OS X 10.1.x Use the NetInfo Manager application and go to /config/AppleFileServer. Modify the attribute "use_appletalk" from 0 to 1. Restart file sharing in the System Preferences

While I've not experienced this myself with my macs... I'll take note of it if I ever do get one of those cards.
