Nope. Deafining silence.
I have since installed 9.1 from scratch a couple more times, verified that
the settings are identical to 8.6 (where TCP/IP works), tried an older
version of TCP/IP (which hung the system), tried to install from my
wife's IMac CD (it runs 9.0 and does TCP/IP correctly, but won't install
on my PTP), all to no avail. Using any ping, telnet, ftp, www tool
return error -3213, which is not documented in Apple's OT book. Until
today, I haven't heard of any success, but I see that one poster reports
success.
Sigh. I hate computers. If I didn't make my living writing software
for them, I ... I guess I'd still have one anyway.
