G-listers. I am trying to set up a G3 iMac running 9.2.2 for home
use which has come from a school and it has no modem/PPP option
under TCP/IP. Remote Access and Modems was not showing under
Control Panels. I have tried copying across Remote Access and
Modem Control Panel extensions from an iMac running the same
system, but now it complains that it cannot find "Controller" ?
I have tried going back through 9.1 and older System Disks looking
for a Remote Access Installer but I haven't been able to find one.
Any thoughts or ideas gratefully received.
You need a lot more than just a few control panels.
If it's a school computer, it may not have a modem installed...
Run the System Profiler to check.
Thanks to Dan and Yersinia for replying. I had checked the System
Profiler and it interrogates the modem okay and comes back with
iMac Internal 56k (Euro) and V.90 version V2.300-V90
I reinstalled 9.2.2. as suggested Dan but still everything is still
the same.
Yersinia,
This is a computer I received as a donation (along with 39 others! )
from a very generous High School 12 months ago. I wiped the hard
drive and rebuilt up to 9.2.2 for a Junior class. It is only a 266
and I have received a few 333s as a replacement (not a huge shift
but a bit better to run OSX). This computer is now going to a
family in the class. By 'setting up', I meant cleaning all school
stuff off it and setting it up for their internet connection. I
would prefer not to rebuild again but if I have to.....
Thanks again for your help and advice and if anyone has any ideas....
Cheers
