Woo-hoo, that was the secret! Thanks, Gregorio.
Now I've got the following running:
--PowerBook G3/400 Bronze
--Debian GNU/Linux 2.2
--kernel 2.2.17pre13
--mol-0.9.50
--OS 9.0.4 including OS9 Open Transport (I've been using 8.6 OT stuff)
--1 IP address masq'd through tap0 using the standard instructions
AND now AppleShare-via-IP is working. That's right, I am dancing
around my cubicle.
(Up to now all worked okay with MOL, at least thru 0.9.48. *Except*
AppleShare--I could mount an AppleShare volume from the Chooser, but
on opening a folder on the mounted volume, MOL's console video and/or
X would crash with a heavy thud--with lots of "can't allocate packet
datas" messages.)
I can provide further details for this particular setup if anyone
wants them. But right now, what I want to do is report a success and
say thank you. :-)
Mike
