Firstly may I say that I dont believe my osx problems on my 2 macs were caused by me. The reason they both have/had a problem at the same time may be due to the fact that they both had osx installed on them at the same time. Before the problems I had never touched the unix side. They just 'broke' all on their own. Its not unusual for any computer to do that
As to my network problem with osx, i took it straight to apple site and mac addict site as it seemed well off list for G list. Despite entering the correct details in my network pane ( ethernet adsl, manually configure, static ip) net utility shows a bogus local ip of 198.etc. I cannot get that mac on the net as a result. The settings are correct - I use them for the ibook and this pc. I have done for over a year. I need to make osx forget whatever it thinks about the network and start with a clean slate. On 9 I would trash some preferences. I cant find that option in x, only directions to go unix and single user etc networking imo is very bad in x. People on both macaddict and apple site seem to agree and the network updater from apple is tearing a lot of peoples os to pieces not good n -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
