I'm sorry. I've only installed it on Windows. I'm sure others have experience with OS-X. The networking and other installation issues are addressed in http://simh.trailing-edge.com/pdf/simh_faq.pdf see specifically:
2.3 How do I install SIMH on Unix/Linux/OS-X? Ethernet support is available only on Linux, OS-X, NetBSD, OpenBSD, FreeBSD and Solaris. - Unzip the archive of sources to a new directory. You must specify the -a switch to unzip for proper conversion of Windows cr-lf sequences to UNIX newline sequences. - The makefile included in the simh source distribution is a GNU make makefile. Some systems have GNU make as the default make (i.e. Linux). If your system’s make is not GNU make, then be sure to install the GNU make package first and then use the ‘gmake’ command instead of ‘make’: % make all - If you want Ethernet support in the PDP-11, VAX or VAX780, you should install your OS distribution’s libpcap-devel package prior to building the simulator: - More details about Ethernet installation and configuration can be found in the 0readme_ethernet.txt file in the simh sources.

I am struggling with this on Mac. It's only a blast from the past (Medical School 30 years ago) but I would like to run it eventually on a MacPro and perhaps even on Ubuntu 14.04 (outward facing :-)-O). greetings, el -- Dr. Eberhard W.
