Keywords: dnet, dosen't work, huh? Message-ID: <6413@hubcap.clemson.edu> Date: 8 Sep 89 03:47:10 GMT Organization: Clemson University, Clemson, SC Lines: 21 I know some time ago we had a whole flurry of problems getting DNet 2.01 to work, but at that time I didn't really have a use for it. Now, between me and my roomate, we have 3 Amigas. (Only 2 hard drives, though) Since I saw the software distillery's NET: device recently, I decided to hook up the 3rd Amiga with NET: and avoid much jumping back and forth with disk in hand. However, DNet 2.01 barfed when I tried running it. Here's how I have it set up: my 1000 feeds the second 1000 through a null modem cable. When I start DNet, the little 'dialing' window appears. Now, you are supposed to use the menu entry 'start DNet', wherepon the computers will automatically start up a FTerm window. I'm okay untill then. The window appears, but never does anything. After a bit, it goes away again and the little 'dialing' window appears. No error messages, no nothing. I pulled my hair out checking all of the files like dnet.server to make shure everything was set up right. Did anybody else have this problem? Any ideas on what I could be doing wrong? Matt? anyone? anyone?
