If anyone has been able to get MacTCP, ethernet, Phase 1 AppleTalk,
& system 7.04b working together please let me know how.
Thanks...

First, for phase 1 EtherTalk, simply drag the Phase 1 icon into the system folder. It will automatically be put into the extensions folder, and once you select it from the network cdev, it works great. MacTCP is a little more tricky. You need to have copies of the cdev in both the extensions folder and also the root level of the system folder. Once you do this and reboot, it should work OK. Hope this helps. Mike Bell

Why does > it have to be in the extensions folder as well? It doesn't!! MacTCP 1.0.x does need to be in the System Folder itself, not in the Control Panels or Extensions folder. For convienence sake, put an alias of the MacTCP cdev in the Control Panels folder. The next major release of MacTCP will fix this problem.

Putting it in the root level of the system folder works fine. Mike Bell
