  • TCPIP / SilverPlatter

    From Steven Nelson@21:1/5 to All on Tue Mar 22 09:17:31 2022
    I have TCPIP working on my IIGS machines. Webber works. SAFE2 works. I am trying to make SilverPlatter NDA work as web server. I am at a brickwall or I am over thinking the situation. For instance, how do I tell another machine (raspberrypi or osx
    mac or Apple2 a2osx) how to access the IIGS? What is the IIGS ip addr (I think it is 192.168.0.97 according to SAFE2 connection) but how can I tell for sure? What will tell me the IIGS ip addr or name? I can not ping the IIGS at addr 192.168.0.87. Am
    I missing something obvious? Can anyone provide an example of connecting to SilverPlatter?
    TIA, Steven

    Well, those two addresses you listed are different. ;-)

    To figure out what IP address your GS is getting from your home router
    via DHCP, you could ask the router. The list of connected devices it
    maintains will list it there. If you've hardcoded an address in the configuration like in the olden days (I'm not super familiar with the GS
    IP stacks) then you'll have hardcoded it and you'll already know what it
    is. :-)

    Typo! I meant 192.168.0.97

    My router is 192.168.0.1 . I can not login to manage local network devices and services. I think I know my username but the passphrase is a secret only my ISP provider knows (Mediacom). So I am kind of screwed in that regard. My ISP protects me from
    myself! SAFE2 is the only pgm I am aware of that shows an IP. I wish the TCPIP control panel would display the IP but I am not seeing it (looking in wrong place probably). Anyway, does the SilverPlatter NDA actually work? How to connect?

    Try using this NDA to see your IIgs IP address: https://macgui.com/downloads/?file_id=11189

    Thanks. MyNDA verified GS ip as 192.168.0.97. Next I typed 192.168.0.97:80 into the chromium web browser on my raspberrypi and Voila! My IIGS home directory showed up on my rpi. I haven't tried figuring out how to share different volumes yet but Web
    server is working!
    Thanks for helping! Steven
