Hi Priya, Hmmm...
There was a fix checked into the github repository about 21 hours ago which fixed an Ethernet issue and which the version you've built does not contain. You will definitely need the latest code, However, that doesn't seem to be the issue you are encountering. It seems you've built a simulator without support for libpcap. The output produced when you performed 'make vax' would be more informative regarding this. It probably suggests that you need to install the libpcap-dev package for your simulator to have Ethernet support... If after considering this, you still have a problem, please open an issue at https://github.com/simh/simh/issues. - Mark From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Priya Chincholikar Sent: Wednesday, December 18, 2013 3:28 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Simh] Ethernet connection problems Hi, I'm installing SIMH on RedHat VM.
