The first time you run it will prompt you for a data directory.
This is the directory that contains rpc.cfg, roms, hostfs and hard
disc files. You can either choose an existing directory or choose
an empty directory (~/Library/Application Support/RPCEmu by
default) which RPCEmu will set up by copying the ROM file you
choose to it.
The first time I ran it, it prompted me for my password as well.
Was this to install the kernel extensions for tun/tap or something?
I noticed this too, but forgot to mention it. As it happens, the
computer and Mac OS X install I was using is 'disposable', so I took
the risk and authenticated.
Hmm, it is a bit "rude" of RPCEmu to prompt for authentication when it
is first run, isn't it? It only needs to authenticate to install the
privileged helper tool for networking, so I've removed the "ipaddress"
setting from the default rpc.cfg file so you won't get a password
prompt on the first run.
I've also merged my changes and Timothy Coltman's PowerPC patch with
the latest Spoon code and set up a mercurial repository at http://fe4e.ath.cx/hg/rpcemu-spoon-fjd/
.
