Hello..i hope someone familiar with Apple Unix can help..
I have A/UX running well on my Centris 650, connected to
a D-Link DE-816TP 16 port hub (router?) along with three
other boxes, all of which connect with no problem to the
outside, as well as see each other when using appletalk.
After I installed AUX i did the 'newconfig', entering all the
appropriate info re network settings..the kernel
recompiled with the correct driver (ae0 for a MacCon
card)..
I entered the default gateway via rc (route add default
x.x.x.1 1)
and entered the domain and dns servers in NETADDRS..
I also configured inittab as recommended..
The gateway address doesn't show up in the MacTCP
control panel though, and whenever I try to connect to a
zone I get 'No router address available'
I know it connects fine on that same box, as when booted
into plain old MacOS , using DHCP, it connects just fine.
It's only in A/UX that i get nothing..i can't even ping any
other box on the network.
I followed exactly the advice on several A/UX sites, which
is the same as the apple support docs advice.
The only thing is that , because A/UX doesn't support
DHCP, the settings that I entered manually were the IP
address and other settings listed when booted into Mac
OS..it's the same box, however, so the info should be the
same, shouldn't it?
My main (OSX) box has had the same IP forever, but the
rest on the network seem to keep changing IP addresses
daily, so do I perhaps need to enter something different?
I am not using my OSX box as any kind of gateway, i don't
think, as I have only one card in it , and anyways it's just
plugged into the router same as all the others, so I have
absolutely no idea why it stays the same and the others
keep changing..it's not a mac thing either, i had a BeOS
box and it's IP address kept changing every week or so
too...
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong here with the A/UX
box, to get it online, at least connected to the others on
my network?
Thanks in advance....

Update...after disabling appletalk, I can ping the OSX box, but FTP and HTTP just don't connect..i get no error messages at all, they just stall at the 'looking up address' portion....
Still need help!
