Hello, all. I am new to the group and have only been working with Apple 2's since January. Hopefully this is the right place to post this.
Anyway, I am working with a IIGS connected to A2SERVER using the supplied VM. Thanks to Geoff I got localtalk working through a Farallon PN848.
I found some older code for MacGate and have managed to update the code to the point that it compiles cleanly and runs in the VM (Ubuntu with kernel 3.5.0). MacGate is supposed to be an appletalk to TCP/IP gateway and/or router.
The IIGS connects to the network and finds the gateway using MacIP with Marinetti 3.X installed. However, this is currently the extent of my success with this and neither Telnet nor Casper work.
I have tried unsuccessfully to locate the original author, and I only know that he had some hand in the kernel internals for appletalk as well. So I am here to gauge interest and see if anyone is able to help with evaluating or fixing the code. I have nearly 20 years experience with Linux but relatively little experience with C.
