Okay, so here it goes:
At the moment, I am staring at two things.
The first is my laptop screen, so I can see what I am typing as I
compose this message.
The second is my Performa 6110CD, which I was using to check my email
on gmail.
YES, I have networked my Performa 6110CD to the internet. :)
Quick recap on that hookup:
Farallon EtherMac AAUI to RJ-45 10BaseT Ethernet adapter, hooked up to
a cable modem (or more specifically, an airport extreme). Surfing
through OpenTransport (latest for system 7.6.1); TCP/IP control panel
configured to connect via Ethernet. Browser of choice (only one
available) is Netscape Navigator.
Performa booting off HD, which is actually a 80-pin UltraWide SCSI
interface, running through several adapters (80 pin -> 68pin -> 50pin)
to reach the 50 pin interface connecting to the motherboard. Other
connected SCSI devices: Apple 300Plus CD-ROM drive, HP Tape Drive, and
this is not on the chain, but a floppy drive as well (1.44MB). Cable
I'm using has a drop for one more device, should I choose to add
another.
The hurdle is almost over. Hang tight, everybody! Still need to fix a
few issues, and I have a quick (new) question. Here goes:
I cannot seem to find a correct setup to route the ethernet internet
connection to my other macs via LocalTalk. Apparently, AppleTalk and
LocalTalk connections do NOT have the ability to forward TCP packets,
so I need to "encapsulate" those TCP packets within an AppleTalk
connection. Localtalk Bridge has failed, so moving on to another piece
of software.
At the suggestions of others, I have downloaded IPNetRouter from
Sustainable Softworks. I have tried to set it up to route my ethernet
TCP/IP packets through MacIP or local talk (or something), but have
since been unsuccessful. I think I am simply not setting it up
correctly. Also, the configuration utility has failed, and I cannot
get any routing connection to work.
I have both interface connections set up in IPNetRouter, the ethernet
has IP Masquerading ON, set to an IP of 10.0.1.31 (permanently
assigned by my airport router network). From the airport (network)
side, I have tunneled incoming TCP port 4670 to route directly to the
IP address (the configuration utility requires it).
The LocalTalk interface has a starting IP of 192.168.1.1 (for the host
Performa), and the other computers have 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.3
for the Powerbook and the SE, respectively. What I am I doing wrong?
Does anybody have any suggestions, or does anybody have a way of
setting it up successfully? Any help would be appreciated.
Second issue: I have an old tape drive (DDS2) that connects to my SCSI
chain. It is an old HP C1539, I think, and I cannot get Mac OS 7.6.1
to format and read from the tapes. I have tried MicroNet and Lido
software, and nothing will even acknowledge that a tape is present! It
sees the drive (Sequential-Access Tape Drive), and a model number and
other pieces of minor info, but it doesn't see the tape. Is it
possible to use an old tape drive like that as another drive? For
example, can I insert a tape into the drive, and (somehow) store files
to it like I can a hard drive?
Is it the lack of software I'm using should I be using something more
specific? If so, DL links would be appreciated!
(Also, unrelated minor note, anybody have suggestions for a good FTP
browser for system 7? I want to download some files off an FTP server,
but don't have any software. Ideas?)
Thanks for the help, everybody. I really appreciate it. Because of
everybody here, I have resurrected some old macs, and turned then from
useless scraps to working, functional, and modernized machines. *Tips
hat to everybody*.
So, I look forward to hearing your responses. Cheers!
-Jake
