Okay. I've got my A1200, the wife's Apple Powerbook, and two Windoze machines all networked. I know that might seem like a horrible travesty, but it is cool to have the Amiga in the mix. I am using Miami Deluxe with a PCMCIA network card under OS 3.1 (I still can't get 3.9 to work).
All the machines identify themselves by name (Wallstreet, eMachine, Dragon) except the Amiga. Does anybody know how to make a networked Amiga identfy itself on the network by name? I don't see an option in Miami for that, and I'm not aware of an option in the OS to name the machine. Does OS 3.9 support that?
For that matter, does anybody know where I can register MiamiDX? I tried to do it at NordicGlobal.com but it never seems to be working. I've been a registered user of Miami for years. I never thought I'd need MiamiDX but now that I do, I'd like to pay for the upgraded license key.
Also, in case you're curious, the names were given to the computers for the following reasons:
Wallstreet - It's an OS X Apple G3/G4 "Wallstreet" model Powerbook.
eMachine - It's a Win 98 Celeron built by the eMachines Company.
Dragon - A Win XP Pro Athlon XP on a Soyo KT600 Dragon Ultra motherboard that I built.
For what it's worth....
