I tried this, and it worked :) Apologies for the many stupid questions, but thanks for helping me through it. The terminal output was: Chris-Wraights-Mac-mini:~ chriswraight$ sudo /Users/chriswraight/Documents/Technology/RISC\ OS/RPCEmu\ Docs/macosx/startnat en1 Password: net.inet.ip.forwarding: 0 -> 1 14201 divert 8668 ip from any to any via en1 14202 allow ip from any to any After that, I managed to follow the instructions at http://www.riscos.info/index.php/RPCEmu_Linux_Guide#Network_support to get RISC OS networking setup. Entering *ping in a Task Window produces the expected results. My attempts to run NetSurf have been less successful. I managed to load the RISC OS Open site, but after opening a couple of pages OK, it stopped fetching new ones (the throbber just kept rotating, but no data was loaded). Other sites have also failed to load, eventually producing a 'Timeout while trying to contact DNS Servers' error message. Do I need to enable packet forwarding on the host machine to get NetSurf to work properly (I haven't attempted to follow the script in the Networking Support document, as the RPCEmu ReadMe said to ignore instructions relating to the Linux host machine)? Or have I missed something else? As always, any help is much appreciated.
