parnet
« on: August 12, 2004, 12:50:40 PM »
When making a parnet cable, should SEL be connected to SEL on other Amiga? I understand it has to be connected to local ACK, but what about the remote?

There are several versions, what parnet file from Aminet is best?

How do I install it?

Does it work with KS 1.3?
What is the max length of cable?

Building cable is a LOT easier than PC2Amiga one, because its simpler, each pin is connected to identical on other side.

Is 3meters (10 ft) of cable length OK?

How do I install it? The manual doesn't even say copy parnet.device to devs: and similar (I know thats obvious, but..)

Do I have to change mountlist at server side (put server instead of handler)?

It works, thanks all.
The only thing that crashes is if I try this on client side:

dir NET:smbfs

where smbfs is samba on an Ethernet Amiga (parallel server).
It is "asking too much", but I wonder if that could be made to work? :-o
