I'm not an expert in anything Apple, however I strongly suspect that enabling Internet Sharing means your Mac will do the following: 1. create a private subnetwork on the selected interface with a semi-random address space (e.g. 192.168.XXX.0/24) 2. start a DHCP service to serve addresses from selected address space to client hosts 3. set the Mac up as a router doing NAT for the client hosts Unfortunately the BeagleBone's USB network emulation has already done steps 1 and 2 on _its_ side with pre-determined address spaces 192.168.6.0/24 and 192.168.7.0/24. This creates an address conflict between the BB and Mac which makes connectivity impossible. I'd suggest connecting your BB and Mac via Ethernet (buy a cheap USB-Ethernet adapter if needed) and enabling Internet Sharing on that interface. In this case the sharing feature should work as intended. Plus you'll always have the same USB network emulation to ssh into the BB in a tight spot. -- Kind regards, Tarmo Kuuse -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
