Amiga to Amiga network with miami and envoy, possible?

[Dragster]

Hi mates:

I have a question here... is it possible to network two amigas using Envoy and Miami with the same ethernet cards on both at the same time...  what would I have to do to be able to share the internet and mount devices from one to the other and viceversa with envoy at the same time?

Suggestions welcome,

thanks!!!

I'm not real sure about Envoy, but I know for a fact you can set up an ethernet network on one system and using IP-Nat configuration with MiamiDX for both systems to connect on one connection.  All you need to do set up the main system (primary internet connection) to connect to the internet on one connection and the other connect to the 2nd computer.  You will need to use a gateway of the 1st computer's IP address and a mask of 255.255.255.0.  When you set the IP on both computers, set them up using either 192.168.0.* or 10.12.0.*; those are the standard local IP addresses where * is (1-255).  It's been ages since I've used MiamiDX but I hope this helps.  You should be able to read some of the tutorials on http://www.nordicglobal.com or the Miami mailing lists.

Hi!

There should be no real problem to use Envoy and a TCP/IP stack at the
same time. I do this every day, with Envoy 3.1 (3.0 with 3.1 patch
from Aminet) and Genesis (OS3.9). It should work the same way with
MiamiDX. The only thing you have to think about, is to change the IP
and ARP packet types for Envoy in a way they do not interfere with
your TCP/IP system. The Envoy docs explain how to do this.
99% of my networking between my Amigas is done via Envoy (it's sooo
easy and transparent to use...), all other stuff (including SUNs,
WinPCs, I-Net connectiong sharing et al.) is done via TCP/IP.
Sometimes I wish, I could do EVERYTHING with Envoy...:-)
