Hello, List. :)
I think I'm green in networking, and have a fundamental problem: Is that
works if I connected a Mac Powerbook and a Linux server with crosslink utp
cable? Or may I have to buy other hardware elements?
It must connected only one Powerbook, not subnetwork of Apples. The linux
box has 3 network cards, and I'd like to connect to eth2.
I think it must work, but not sure.
RedHat 6.1, kernel 2.2.10, netatalk 1.4b2 with asun 2.1.3 (what a heck is
asun? :)
I read netatalk docs, and put this to atalkd.conf:
eth2 -router -net 1000 -addr 1000.1 -zone "apple"
I've set the eth2 as the following:
network: 192.168.5.0
host: 192.168.5.1
broadcast: 192.168.5.255
netmask: 255.255.255.0
Route is OK, if I connect another machine with other OS. But I don't know
what to set in the Mac! (Sorry it's not a netatalk problem but I don't know
another mailing list...)
in the TCP/IP networking I've set the same netmask and add 192.168.5.2 to ip
address. Then I went to appletalk menu, and select Ethernet card. Then I got
the message 'No zones found'.
I have a look at /var/log/messages:
atalkd: as_timer multiple interfaces, no seed
atalkd: as_timer can't configure eth0
atalkd: as_timer waiting for router
atalkd: ready 0/0/0
afpd: Can't get register euro26:AFPServer@*
afpd: ASIP started on 194.143.245.68:548(0) (1.4b2+ausn2.1.3)
But what did it want to eth0????? I dunno.
Of course, it do not work yet.
Is there a program with the same function as route or ping?
Thanks,
Imre Veres
