Someone help Please!

Can somebody please help me with getting on the internet in Basilisk II (Mac OS X Version)? I have tried the slirp method, although I am not sure I did it right. Is there more than just typing "slirp" (w/out quotations) in the EtherNet interface? Someone please help. Thanks. (I apologize if this has already been posted.)

Hi,

Did you have to type it, or was there a choice in the drop down box?

In Basilisk, did you set TCP/IP to connect through ethernet
and use DHCP?

If not, please do so.

If this does not work, please post the contents of your .basiliskii_prefs file.

Best wishes

I have to type it, but even when I save with it and quit Basilisk II it doesn't save it, even though I click save. Also, I have Mac OS set to TC[/IP AN DHCP, but it doesn't get an address.

Hi,

Did you download the most recent build from the 1st of May and the GUI from 5th of May?

This is the site:
http://www.gibix.net/dokuwiki/en:projects:basilisk2

If the new GUI doesn't, you can try to edit the .basiliskii_prefs file.
Just make sure the line "ether slirp" is in there.

Can you also please paste it's contents here?

Best wishes

Well, I just downloaded the new version, but it still won't work. I typed slirp in the text field, and i typed ether slirp there, but it still doesn't work. If I Just type slirp, it comes up with no error message, but still doesn't work. If I type anything else, like ether slirp, it says "Cannot open /dev/sheep_net (No such file or directory) Eithernet will not be available." Also, I can't find the preferences file, so I can't post it.

Hi,

The prefs file is hidden in your home folder.

If you: "sudo nano basilisk_ii_prefs" in Terminal, you can edit it and copy it here.

Just to make sure: you downloaded the OSX version?

the prefs file should like this this:

well that's what my prefs say, but now for some reason Mac OS deleted everything in my system that has to do with TCP/IP
