It's working again.
It turned out that I by mistake had enabled Virtual Interfaces which
messed things up badly.
I posted my problem on arstechnica.com and got some very skilled help
from OS X expects. So big thanks to a guy who goes by the handle
costique.

I haven't upgraded to Leopard yet because I've got too much music
editing software that won't run on it... I haven't seen the 'virtual'
option in OS 10.4... what does it do? I guess I can search that
myself.
Glad it's working again.

Eric,
I don't think that a crossover cable is needed, the Mini should be able
to handle the crossover internally as pretty much every PC can today. It
has also been working for a couple of months.
The IP and subnet mask is set as you suggest. If you read my previous
post you'll see that it's
What's happening with the wireless in the Mini? You know that you can
DRAG the connection types in a 'priority' list, i.e. Ethernet then
Airport then whatever. If an Ethernet connection is discovered, it
will connect to that, if not then it will try Airport, and so on.
Do you know where to find
The Mini is connected to wireless to my router, no problem with that
connection.
Ethernet is set as number 2, right after airport. If I do it the other
way round then the Mini can't access the router.
I found out the hard way since the Mini is running headless, my Screen
Share stopped working.
avta,
Your suggestions are sound but I'm not at a point where the SB3 needs
to connect to the slimserver yet. Once I can ping the SB3 from Mini
then slimserver should work too, if not then I'll go through your
list.
Looking in Console.app I can see that the Mini detects that there's
something
Try some or all of these if you like:
. Uninstall slimserver by right clicking the icon in the Preference
pane and selectRemove
. Go to Applications and use the Search function to find any remaining
files of Slimserver and delete them ( drag to Trash )
. Download and install Slimserver

That would only happen if you have something plugged into the Ethernet
port. Is that what you're doing? You're running wireless to the
router and wired to your SB3 from the Mini? So you've got two separate
IP addresses on the Mini... one wireless and one wired?
Phil Leigh;258524 Wrote:
Oh - so that's like having two seperate network connections?
I wouldn't have thought that would work.
Have you tried plugging the SB into the router?
Yes, the wireless has one IP and the ethernet has another. It's is
working on my Macbook so I see no reason why it
Again, if you're trying to use BOTH the order in the list is going to
take preference. So you should be using a static IP on the wired
connections and let the router handle DHCP for the wireless. If your
router is using 192.168.x.x then try using something like 10.0.x.x for
the wired
Hi all,
I've run into a problem where I can't get my SB3 to connect to the
server anymore. I have tried to reset the SB3. My setup is as follows.
A SB3 is connected directly to a Mac Mini via an Ethernet cable, no
wireless.
The Mini is running Leopard 10.5.1. On the Mini the Ethernet is set to
AFAIK setting the gateway to 0 won't work, you need to set it be the
address of your router (or the same as your music source if you don't
have a router).

Hmm... I can't ping the SB3.
If I go to the Setup menu (2 of 4) to see the current settings the IP

Also tried setting DNS and gateway.
Is my little SB3 dead?

It's not able to connect to your mac mini's IP address for some

Do you have a firewall turned on?
On the mini can you ping 192.168.1.30?
Firewall is off.
Yes, I can ping 192.168.1.30 which is the address I've

Thats a normal one, don't have a crossover at hand.
It has been working for a couple of month. I did find a switch which I
hooked up but that didn't help.

It does and it looks to be strait forward to set this up. I noticed
some strange entries in one of the system logs so I think I'll try to

Sorry I jumped in late... did you say if the Mini has a static IP? I
looked back and saw 192.168.1.30, that's it?If you're connecting
directly to the Mini you will need a crossover cable if you don't have
a router or hub.
Since you've entered a static IP, did you enter the subnet mask as
