WinUAE & Internet quickstart?
« on: May 22, 2003, 11:04:34 PM »
Since my A1200 is getting old and she refuses to boot more and more, I decided for the mean while to get WinUAE running.

So I've installed WinUAE, transferred my roms, and tried that route.. Ok, I get WB3.1 installed and all, but, I have no clue whatsoever how to use the bsdsocket thing.. IP stack and whatnot, I have never used my real Amiga for getting online, but I'd like to give it a try.

Is there a quickstart or howto for WB3.1 users??

btw, I've been lurking here, well since forever LOL I'm useally not someone who asks questions unless I really don't know how to proceed next  :-P

Tick BSDsocket.library emulation in Winuae/Misc and when an Amiga program tries to get access to the net the windows side will do the connecting via which ever way you connect to the net.

So, I just go install IBrowse or Voyager and it should work?

Yes,there is no need to install a tcp/ip stack on the Amiga side just for net access.

Download the files then  transfer them over to the Amiga side then install.
