Anything over 4x speed should work OK.

That's an older version of FWB CD-ROM Toolkit that
works from at least System 7.1 through Mac OS 9.2.2.

I know it works with 9.2.2 because I used it on my
7300 to run a Pioneer 6-disc CD changer.

The HDT PE2 is an older version of FWB Hard Disk
Toolkit Personal Edition, which'll come in handy
for formatting your hard drive.

It will be total Fandemonium!

Re: Hosting on the web.

2005-05-09 Thread Quinn Evans
 A/UX is a nice little system, fun to play with. Apache is even 
available for it. It does have some security holes, but many of them 
have patches, available on the Jagubox mirrors (one mirror still in 
existence is at ftp://ftp.geo.tu-freiberg.de/). Also note that most of 
the people who could crack System V died with the dinosaurs, so you 
probably have to worry about the 7.0.1 side more than the Unix side of 
things, which is to say, you needn't worry much. If I remember 
correctly, GCC is also officially compatible up to GCC v3.0, and I 
think 3.1 works, too, although A/UX is marked as 'obsoleted' in this 
version.

 Hope This Helps,
  Quinn Evans

Absolutely. I'm running a IIci under 8.1, headless with Quid Pro Quo and Net 
Presenz.
Also running an SE/30 under 7.5.5 with Quid ProQuo and an SE under 7.5.5 
with MacHTTP.

I'm still trying to find the time to get this old Mac 512k modified with a 
SCSI and 2mbs of ram to work as a server. I've fiddled with it a bit under 
6.0.8 but haven't gotten anything to connect.

There's a whole list of old 68k sites here http://macintosh.luddite.ca/

After reading this post, I became interested too.
Is there a way I could run my Mac II ci as a Web Server on the Internet? 
I would only need the basic http publishing services, as well as some FTP 
access to update the website every once in a while.

I am currently running 7.6 and would like to know if there is any third

be more than glad to put little II ci to work as a web server since I have

can it work headless/keyboardless (As in a hosting server colocation

It will do it, certainly. MacHHTP is a suitable web server, as the
original post said.
I would recommend that you patch it to MacOS 7.6.1 as soon as possible
- it's a free download.

I have read that traditional Mac TCP/IP is much quicker than
OpenTransport on older Macs with 68030 processors, tho' I've not
notice much difference myself. This means using MacTCP. It's pretty
simple and you should find a tool on your 7.6 CD called "Network
Software Switcher" to make the change.

However, OpenTransport is right there, integrated, and it works, so it
might be best to get started with that.

Good question! I have no idea. Try it and see, I can't see how it
would do any harm!

I have not done this yet, but I plan to. I think the best *nix environment
is NetBSD (unless there is a FreeBSD build for classic Macs). I did some
research and digging on the web and the BSD's seem to be "the best" and as
a real unix it'd be superior to a Linux IMO.

Apple makes a couple I've used. The external 300
series, a caddy-style CD ROM where your CD fits in a
plastic holder which then fits in the CD ROM; and the
600 series which is a tray-loading cd machine.
Other externals can be made to work. I used FWB CD ROM
Tool Kit Software which let the Mac "see" some types
of CD ROMs not made by Apple. FWB will only work with
up to OS 8, I think, before causing system problems.

Yeps. Apple CD 300 is caddy-style, but with luck you could get the 300i 
unit, which is tray-loaded. I don't have a 600, but it will probably 
work faster.
Btw, I've also used a borrowed LaCie CD-RW (when my CD-ROM unit stopped 
working), and it worked fine! (But don't even think of burning CDs, even 
on a Quadra 800 it only works in certain special conditions, and only up 
to 8x!)

I own a LCIII with an external Apple 2x SCSI CD-ROM. The unit uses old 
cartdriges to insert the CD-ROM. When the one that I had simply blew up, 
I searched eBay and I got an unit (with the same characteristics) for 
$5. But I don't recommend that! I live in Portugal, and I paid 10 times 
more ($50) for shipping! And I was lucky, because it passed customs! 
Search on eBay for drives in UK (besides USA and Canada, that's the 
country that has more products for sale), and good luck!
Hope I was helpful

Subject: External CD ROM Drives


I'm curious about finding a CD drive to use with an LCIII that I have - I 
assume
it will be of the external SCSI variety. Can anyone point me in the 
direction of
one? Bear in mind that I live in the UK.

Usually it's the first place to look of course, I just don't know the best kind
to look for, given the age of the LC.

A new one will be hard to come by, as well as ££

Best bet would be www.ebay.co.uk

It will be total Fandemonium!
