Hiya, everybody, I have an A1200 and an A500, and am trying to link them via parnet. I've installed, and re-installed the parnet software several times, I've checked and double-checked the cable several times - hey, I've even read the documentation! ;) But, it still doesn't work. :( First I run netpnet-server on one machine, and then on the other (taking care to use the opposite number for the unit as the one that is in the parnet mountlist entry. Then I mount the NET: device on both machines. So far so good. I type CD NET: on one machine, and the Network disk icon appears, and the current directory becomes NET:. I do the same on the other machine, the same happens. So, feeling adventurous, I try a CD NET:RAM/ on one of the machines. At this point, the shell appears to stop responding to the system... the CD command does not return, and CTRL-C does not work. I've tried using different commands, eg. dir or copy, and I get the same result. A dead shell, with CTRL-C being ignored. Help! Any ideas? -- MushyPea/EtCetera (Ian Marsh) [680x0 coder, musician] ___MMM___ Email: MushyPea@etchq.demon.co.uk (EtCetera HQ) (O O) -WWW-: http://www.cus.umist.ac.uk/~mushypea/ ---oOO--(_)--OOo--- A1200-030 10Mb SCSI2 700MbHD 3xCD 28800Vfc PGPv2.6ui
