NOTE: This software currently only works in conjunction with a Webster
|
|
MultiPort Gateway or UAB from CAP 6.0. To install async appletalk using
|
|
UAB, read the UAB documentation and follow steps 0, 2, 6, 7, 8 & 9 below.
|
|
YOU DON'T NEED TO RUN asyncad WITH UAB
|
|
|
|
To install for use with a hardware gateway
|
|
------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
0. Read the file 'README' for an overview of the way Async Appletalk works.
|
|
1. Compile and install async and asyncad (eg: in /usr/local/cap).
|
|
2. add a line such as the following to /etc/services (NB: 750 is not an
|
|
officially assigned port).
|
|
|
|
aabroad 750/udp # async atalk broadcast
|
|
|
|
3. create an AppleTalk Net Number for each host that is to run asyncad and
|
|
add lines to /etc/atalkatab to map the network number to the host IP address.
|
|
(You must be using the modified atalkad.c available via ftp from munnari.OZ.AU)
|
|
|
|
170.26 A 128.250.1.26 unimelb-Async # async net running on murtoa
|
|
|
|
4. add another entry to /etc/atalk.local to identify the Net Number and
|
|
Zone Name for Asynchronous AppleTalk on this host. This must be the fourth
|
|
non-comment line in the file, after the one that identifies the NIS host.
|
|
|
|
# asyncnet asynczone
|
|
170.26 unimelb-Async
|
|
|
|
5. Add an entry to /etc/rc.local to run the daemon at boot time (it may be
|
|
necessary to put this line before 'portmap'. It is possible for portmap to
|
|
steal ports in this range).
|
|
|
|
/usr/local/cap/asyncad
|
|
|
|
6. On your Macintosh, install the 'Network' adev that normally comes with
|
|
the 'EtherTalk' driver. This software is available from Apple.
|
|
|
|
7. Copy 'Async AppleTalk' into the System Folder.
|
|
|
|
8. Connect a serial line to the Macintosh Modem Port and a modem/host port.
|
|
|
|
9. Open the Control Panel and select the ICON 'Async ATalk'. Choose a
|
|
serial line speed and 'Connect'. Follow the normal login procedure and run
|
|
/usr/local/cap/async. The login window will disappear. Selecting the
|
|
Chooser (probably twice consecutively on a Mac Plus at 1200 baud) should
|
|
show the normal AppleTalk services.
|
|
|
|
I recommend that at least System Sotware version 6 be used.
