2003-07-23 Thread Adam Cora Dietrick
i just decided the heck with the hub for now and wired a crossover cable 
direct from the mac to the pc, and then limited the pc to 10mbps.  the 
link light for each card is now lit, but i am still having no luck 
communication-wise.

darren  gave me the following settings for the mac:

Mactpc = 192.168.0.x, subnet 255.255.255.0, gateway 192.168.0.1, dns 
192.168.0.1, domain gotocrystal.net.
x =  a number between 2 and 254, with alittle room left.
Open transport dhcp, router 192.168.0.1, dns 192.168.0.1, starting 
domain gotocrystal.net

are there any suggestions for the pc end?  should i be using certain 
protocols, and setting my workgroup to specific settings?

also, is there a way to make sure the mac is broadcasting-- if windows 
you can look in network neighborhood and see the computer you are on

Did you find which card you have and download the mac installer for it?  
I believe it will contain some form of diagnostic software along with 
installing the correct drivers. The Install Guide for every MacCon card 
is the same .pdf file, page 61 contains some basic graphics from which 
you can compare and id your board. The MCLC10TIII and the MCiLC-10T both 
use the same ver 5.6.1 installer and are the closest things to Greggs 
MacCon-LC which I can't find info for. Its place in the pulldown on the 
link he proves yeilds nothing except a link to the page I provided 
earlier where the two names above are closest. Probably why I didn't use it.

are there any suggestions for the pc end?  should i be using certain 
protocols, and setting my workgroup to specific settings? 


You do have ICS installed and running? The ICshare nic will have the 
default address of 192.168.0.1, the only protocol used is tpc and since 
the mac doesn't do netbios or smb, by default it ignores workgroup settings.



also, is there a way to make sure the mac is broadcasting-- if windows 
you can look in network neighborhood and see the computer you are on 


Ping?
Unless you have a program like Basilisk, pcmaclan or some whiz bang 
version of windows that does client and server duties you will not see 
the mac with the pc, pcmaclan will allow you to see the mac in the 
network neighborhood if installed. You can use Dave on the mac, in which 
case you'd need the workgroup name for the mac. ICS shares the internet 
connection,  not files. The two machines are invisable to each other 
without other software.

Setting the mac to recieve the address via dhcp will show you in two 
ways whether the mac recieves a address or not. Once the mac reboots it 
should have a 192.168.0.x address in the tcp/ip control panel, a 
different address means somethings not right (something like a 
169.x.x.x) and also means a really long wait before you reach the desktop.

I guessed your isp's domain was gotocrystal.net from your return address 
which may be wrong, if so fixing it may help. Using Winipcfg the domain 
name you need on the mac is whats in the Hostname box minus the name of 
the pc you ran Winipcfg on. Clear as mud?

If its the window that pops up at bootup on the pc, tick the box to 
disable it. The client side of pcmaclan is looking for a appleshare 
server which is different to a normal mac with filesharing enabled. Also 
check any firewall you may have

Pcmaclan should find the mac if file sharing is enabled and you have 
selected a share and given permissions in the user and groups control 
panel. The address of the mac doesn't seem to be of much concern to 
appletalk. Provided the mac's card is working properly.

yes, its the window that pops up at bootup, so i wont worry about that.
i have firewall disabled, file sharing is running and i chose a specific 
folder to share, and have it set so anyone can see it

Check chapter 4 of the installation guide, the macconmlrb.pdf is pretty 
comprehensive. I'll post it to you if you have trouble downloading from 
the asante site.

I dont have a 68k mac with a asante card, I'm guessing phase 1 and doubt 
it makes much difference

Nope.



and i am not sure that the ethernet driver is properly installed 


I never have been so far

Be nice if one of the mac gurus left on this list could help out as this 
clueless pc gamer is lost for ideas apart from either adding a 10-baseT 
hub to your setup as Asante recommends (I have little faith in using 
x-over cables with macs) or find a better nic.

Using winipcfg find the address for your ip's dns servers, make note 
of them and try them in the tcp/ip CP's dns box. I think I've given 
you a linux configuration rather than a ICS config. Opp's :)
