i supposedly am getting some install disks for the diginet servers you see
off and on and diginet cards etc on ebay...see link below
for pics of such beasts..disks that is
they are supposedly
NETWORK SUPPORT DISK-1 Version 3.0 ProDOS
NETWORK SUPPORT DISK-2 Version 1.0 Apple DOS (side 1) Pascal (side 2)
NETWORK SUPPORT DISK-1 Version 3.o ProDOS
the link to the ebay auction pics of some of the disks is below
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5838481071&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&rd=1
can't seem to find a link to a pic off hand..of the server itself...but prob
only those here who know what i'm talking about want to see a pic anyway
they are quite common...i see more of this ap2 networking hardware on ebay
then any other one including corvus.at least for server units w/hd's ..but
no one ever has found the install disks..they are primary for k-12 education
so it seems the hardware goes one way and the software goes with the
teacher..at least that seems to be how it worked in above email auction
a mr_boffo@hotmail.com from the link below (the email is dead i tried it but
just in case he is lurking here) says how he has attempted to hack the unit
(ie a server w/no software) and got as far as the password etc ...well you
can see from the descrip

anyway assuming the disks i have still have on them the stuff that is on the
front of them (ie frogger was not copied over them or some such).....i will
see if i can salvage them and upload them someplace...i am somewhat uneasy
about this ..because as far as i know ..no one has this software..so i
suspect a metorite will strike me dead to continue this unbroken streak of
bad luck in getting this software for these beasts (i have 3 of them..in
nothing else they make nice retro scsi cases....they are huge..and cards
etc)
i assume that was the fate for mr_boffo....he finally was on the cusp of
getting this software and a large truck appeared....
anyway...let me know if you have docs or software or what ever .....hoard to
contribute to this project....its not like i'm gonna know what i'm doing
