I know the nets have been blazing with talk of MacTCP and how to get it working, but we're stumped as to how to get TCP running again after installing System 7. Here's the setup: Mac IIx, running System 7 Mac TCP set up for Dynamic Addressing AppleTalk Phase I Here's the situation... The computer worked fine before System 7. Sometimes it took a while to get an address dynamically (i.e. a few tries with telnet). We installed System 7, and TCP no longer gets an address. We tried switching the TCP to manual addressing w/ a valid IP address. Nope. We tried a clean System 7 disk, installed TCP from a clean source, configured it, still no luck. We tried a System 6 disk w/ TCP. Still nothing. We removed everything but the bare bones of the System and we still had zero. Any suggestions as to what we can do? Thanx, Eric Fosler =============================================================================== J. Eric Fosler | Phone: 215-222-7977 | Your ad here!

Sorry to follow up to my own article, but since I've been getting mail about this: We have, as suggested, left MacTCP in the System Folder and aliased it to the Control Panels folder. Also, the version we are running is 1.0.2. Thanx again, Eric =============================================================================== J. Eric Fosler | Phone: 215-222-7977 | Your ad here!
