I think I was the one who started this thread...
So how do I get my router to recognize my SE's ip address???
System 6.0.8, Asante PDS Ethernet card, 4 megs ram.
the router passes appletalk packets just fine (although I can't serve files
from the SE-- It crashed when I tried installing the Appleshare 2.0.1 server
SW, but the 3.5 workstation SW works ok). I have 2 of my G3 volumes set to
auto-mount on the SE desktop at startup.
I'm trying to configure macTCP and nothing I do seems to work...
According to Apple System Profiler on the G3...
TCP/IP
Installed: Yes
Active: Yes
Version: 2.7.9
Personal Web Sharing: is off
Multihoming: is off
USB Printer Sharing: Not installed
Netmask: 255.255.255.0
IP address: 192.168.2.100
Default gateway address: 192.168.2.1
Domain: netvision.net
Name server address: 194.90.1.5
Based on this I messed around w/ macTCP on the SE (using "Obtain address
manually"-- "Dynamicly" wouldn't give me those critical last 3 digits, just
192.168.2.0) until I got TattleTech to report...
� MacTCP is Running = Yes
+ MacTCP Version = 1.1.1
+ IP Address = 192.168.2.105
+ Gateway Address = 192.168.2.1
+ Default Domain Server Name = netvision.net
+ Default Domain Server Address = 194.90.1.5
� Ethernet is Running = No
+ EtherNet Hardware Address = NA
� Current Connection Type = EtherTalk Phase 2
So why doesn't the router's configuration web-page list recognize the SE's
IP address?????? I also tried pinging it & it fails...
grrrrrrrr...
Assuming I ever get this to work, where can I find email/net apps for it?
TIA
