Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I'm still not able to get networking to 
work. As far as I can see, I've installed everything on my Mac correctly. 
Entering sudo <rpcemu dir>/scripts/startnat en1 in the terminal window produces 
the following:

net.inet.ip.forwarding: 0 -> 1
14201 divert 8668 ip from any to any via en1
14202 allow ip from any to any

I've followed the instructions 
at http://www.riscos.info/index.php/RPCEmu_Linux_Guide#Network_support to 
configure RISC OS. Once all the steps have been taken, if I type *ifconfig -a 
into a task window, I get:

lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 
rpcem0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 172.31.0.2 netmask 0xffff0000 broadcast 172.31.255.255
        ether 00:00:00:00:00:00lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> 
mtu 16384
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 
rpcem0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 172.31.0.2 netmask 0xffff0000 broadcast 172.31.255.255
        ether 00:00:00:00:00:00

That looks just as the guide says it should. However, if I try to *ping 
172.31.0.1, I get this:

ping: sendto: Host is down
ping: wrote 172.31.0.1 64 chars, ret=-1
ping: wrote 172.31.0.1 64 chars, ret=-1, etc.


Can anyone advise what might be going wrong, and what I can do to fix it?

Many thanks,
Chris
