Hello,
Have fun with this complete working environment for NET/Mac and IM/Mac.
NET/Mac is the TCP/IP application that should be running (if possible)
24 hours a day, while IM/Mac is the mailer that you can use to read
incoming mail and/or write outgoing mail.
This stuff is intended for those that are going to set up a hamradio-
station with a Macintosh and a transceiver. The connection between the
transceiver and the Mac may be accomplished by using a TNC (terminal node
controller) which supports the KISS protocol, or by using a PacketMac modem
as described in one of the files inside the SoftKiss folder. In this case
you also have to install the SoftKiss software. I myself don't have this
PacketMac modem, nor do I use SoftKiss, so I am afraid I cannot assist you
setting this up...
The only thing you need besides this software and the hardware I just
told you about is an IP-number. Without an IP-number you cannot (should
not) activate your TCP/IP station. You must ask for an IP-number at your
local/national IP-number coordinator. Ask around to find out who he/she is,
and how to get a number.
NOTE that the files autoexec.net, hosts.net, ftpusers, alias and bm.rc
are my own configurationfiles, or just examples. Please don't put the
transmitter 'on air' while using these files.
