Would appreciate your advice, and hope that I'm not trashing prefs etc and having to reinstall years of addresses. I'd actually like to find a way to download them to a print file or something as a standalone backup. So, you deleted the addresses from the address book, and they still turn up in the Message To menu? I haven't seen something like that ever, but here's a suggestion: Most of the Eudora files are simple text files, open it with something like BBEdit. I just tried it, and it's just a simple list. If the old adresses are there, delete them, save the file, and see if they are gone from the menu. If not, at least you have a list of the addresses that you'd like to keep. I did something similar, some time back when one of my mailboxes got too big for my Q800 to handle it. I opened it with BBEdit, cut it in half and saved it as to different files. It worked fine, so I reckon it should be save to fidle around with the nicknames file too. You probably should try it out of a copy first though.

Re: OS 9.1 up and running great on PB 3400
The one thing I miss is 'PPP Menu' (Easy one menu control of all your online activities) - it doesn't work with 9.1.

Re: 1400 and Orinoco 7.2
On the 1400 you have to use the 6.04 software install. See my post of about 9-5-02 or so for detailed comments from the Lucent engineer/support about this and the ftp site link to the older version. They said the 1400 would not work with 7.x version. They also said that out of the box my Orinoco card might not have the latest firmware, but it should be new enough to be OK regardless. Make sure you have WEP disabled for your first tests to rule out encryption issues.

(and dont make your passwords for the puters your home address or street address or your last name to easy to figure out). and please dont make your base station password an easy one thats the number one killer to many times ive seen ap passwords set to the default of admin.(lol),come on peeps cant you think of something a little more original. the bottom line is just make sure guest access is turned off on all puters on the network and they are passworded. hey if you dont believe me drive around your local town with your book and your wirless card in monitor mode see how many networks you can find to surf the net while driving around town (but remember hacking is against the LAWwired or wirless) j.

Re: Eudora Ghost Names
Finally solved it! When nicknames persist in the Message To menu in EUDORA, even though all nicknames are turned off, or even removed from the parent folder, the fix is to rebuild the .toc files in the Address Book(s). Hold down OPTION while opening the Addressbook with the mouse, forcing Eudora to rebuild these files, and clearing the Message submenus. Whew, that took a little digging!

Re: 1400 and Orinoco 7.2
So it all works, airport base station connected att broadband, tibook with airport card, 2400 with skyline, 1400 with silver orinoco and 7.2 drivers...all if you give up WEP...go figure My take from emails that I didn't post to the list, you might be able to use WEP if you use the 6.04, and maybe not if you use the 7.2. I got things going with 128 bit encryption with the 6.04 so just left it alone (although I'm not using WEP now). WEP 128 bit and the 6.04 drivers work with my gold card (the silver would be 40 or 64 bit or whatever). There was one goofy thing about entering the WEP key on the 1400 6.04 drivers though. It didn't tell you precisely but even though I needed 26? 28? ( I forget) characters for the WEP decryption key, on the powerbook I also had to prefix them with 0x (that's zero x) for the 128 bit encryption to work (and thus to let me connect properly). IIRC the instructions made it seem like the 0x was included in the char count but really is was in addition. If you play with it the instructions in the earlier posts about removing/disabling any 7.2 extensions before trying the 6.04 are likely worth following. The way I look at it, since the WEP key for either encryption strength is broken, anyone bothering with the equipment to sniff wireless packets is also going to be decrypting them too. But you can keep unauth. users from just using your bandwith without the WEP anyway with MAC address restrictions. They can go to a coffeeshop or wherever for their free connection :) Brian -- -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: internet connect / disconnect
You could dis/connect using the Control Strip module. I liked FreePPP too and isntall it on all client machines using pre-OS 9 setups. Remy's right--that was introduced in OS 8.5. If you long for a menu bar widget to connect, disconnect (from a modem) and have a simple launcher for one email client, one web browser and even an ftp app, try Internet Menu. It's a freeware extension; I've used it with success in the past with 9.1. http://www.tribar.dabsol.co.uk/internetmenu.html -David -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

This is in fact identical to the one I have for my 3C589C, so I can confirm it works. There is a link LED under the RJ45 jack, and no 10/100 lights on the dongle plug.

OS considerations for newly acquired 1400c
I recently acquired my first color powerbook: 1400c/133/64/1G/8.5.1. Any favorites or benefits in compatibility, speed and/or ram upgrading to 8.6 (a consultant I spoke with preferred 8.5.1 and 9.1+ due to less software bugs than 8.6) or maybe taking it down to 8.1? I run Photoshop6, AOL5 w/GV 56k card (have an uninstalled Linksys Combo Ethernet card model EC2T for when I look into DSL shortly), Opera5, Netscape4.79, BBedit Lt6, Word98 (but have 2001), FMP4, Acrobat4, some emulated game favorites, inits, tools and other minor apps (with 8.1, I'd loose my dock and appearance themes and sounds; with 8.6 or 9.1 I'd get itunes). Am I good to stay put? Thanks for any insight! Craig -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
