Hello System-Administrators,
I had my NeXT connected to the Net via the ETHERNET port for
a while. Now I had to take it off again and operate it as
a standalone machine.
Although I set the Local Configuration in NetManager back to what
it used to be, my machine is still looking for the ETHERNET.
It interrupts the boot process with an errer message telling me
that the ethernet is down or my machine is not connected to it,
and then prompts for the hardware password.
What else do I have to change, to operate the machine again
without a network?
My NetManager Local Configuration looks now like this:
Network Type Address Netmask
x NetInfo Network x Autoconfigure x Default
o Non-NetInfo Network o _____________ o Automatic
Hostname Router o __________
x Autoconfigure x None Broadcast Addr.
o _____________ o Dynamic x Default
o _____________ o ___________
o NetINfo and Configuration Server
NIS Domain Name
x None
o _____________
where x stands for selected
0 stands for not selected
_____ is a text field
And it did look like this, before I put the machine onto the
network! What do I miss ???
Please mail help to schmidmeier@evax.eng.fsu.edu
Thanks, Rainer
