Re: Mac OS X 10.2.8

[Gary D. Adams]

How are you connected to a network? The glitch occurs when you're 
directly connected to an ethernet network using the e-net port instead 
of through a hub or airport connection. That apparently resets the 
machine's IP to the default 169.254.xxx.xxx.

I downloaded and installed 10.2.8 within hours of its
initial posting.  My G4 867 Dual has been humming right
along, no network or Internet failures whatsoever---Was it
ever established that the glitch is only affecting
computers with IP addresses in the 169.254.x.x range?  Or
stations using a 10BASE-T Ethernet connection?  Or both?
 Or neither?
