I picked up a 4000 with warpdrive, ethernetcard and graphics card. I have manged to get the ethernet card working fine and have the 4000 online via AUI/RJ45 and router. Running AmiTCP and Miami.
Question 1
Now for the graphics card. It seems to have a svga connector and a ps2 connector in addition there looks like a video (coax) connector. can I plug a svga monitor directly into this card? and do I need to have a pc ps2 keyboard connected or is it for the A4000 keyboard? I have downloaded some SW (Retina 2.3 from Amiga.resource) but just wanted to check out the HW connections first.
Question 2 (I know this is really proper to the SW Forum)
I also have a A1200 online via a pcmcia card via the same router as the A4000 and also a PC. At the moment I swap files etc using AExplorer on the PC and on each Amiga. I have installed a copy of NcFTP on both Amiga's in order to try and link them "directly" via the router. But all Iget at the moment when I try and issue a OPEN command i.e.e open 192.1.168.122 is an error message like "no socket available" this is with NcFTP running on both Amiga's.
Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong or is there a better suit of progs to enable Amigas to "talk" via Ethernet?
many thanks, Ian.
