I've gotten Amitcp-4.0 demo to run on my A1200 030/50 in the past. Then I saw something on Aminet called "slirp" that said it supported ppp.. so I got the ppp evaluation version, and reconfigured AmiTCP to run with ppp. Didn't work. And Slirp was taking too much space. So I deleted it. but now, Amitcp doesn't work with tia anymore! I dunno what I am doing wrong.. I know I've gotten it to work.. I think (I can't really remember) that I just chose TIA setup, and then for host name I put alpha1 (my UNIX host) and I fill out all that crap correctly, but the thing just refuses to work now. I type "startnet" and everything seems to be working fine, but then when I go, say, "ping alpha1", I look at the modem, and the "send data" light goes on but no "receive" light. So I am assuming AmiTCP is sending weird packets that TIA isn't liking. But what am I doing differently, then? Oh I also ran snoopdos and then did a startnet, and a few things failed: I don't have db/nologin and something else in db (neither were included in the archive) I don't have bsdsocket.library, and that isn't in the distribution archive, either. Where would I get that? Has anyone else had any problems like this? -- CONTROL INTEGRITY LUST in'T@-gr@l http://www.uwm.edu/~integral See you on the flipside, you long-haired freak. -integral@csd.uwm.edu
