Do you want a pointer using an IP address, an OpenVMS (DECnet) address, or a
Mac address?

525.3It's Mac software, use a Mac to copy and install itLAVC::CAHILLJim CahillThu Mar 13 1997 14:0311

Well, since the Mac client software is designed to be installed on a Mac,
it turns out you can only access the kit using the Chooser on a Mac.

To access this Mac software, select "NetRider Remote Access" as the file
server in the Chooser.  You'll be presented with two volumes:  "NetRider
V1.0 SSB Kit" and "NetRider V1.1 SSB Kit".  Copy the kit you want to your
Mac and install away.

525.4is it a joke?HERON::LAFORGUEIt works better when you plug it!Thu Mar 20 1997 10:1715
    If I understand well, you need a Mac to get the software from your net?
    and what is the software for? to put a Mac on the net.
    How do you put the Mac on the net without the software you are supposed
    to get with the Mac you are tring to put on the net with this bloody
    software?
    
    Don't you see here a little bootstrap problem?
    
    Fortunately the Macintosh good fairies have put a copy in:
    HUMANE""::MAC$DEC_ONLY:NETRIDER_CLIENT_FOR_MAC_V1_1.INSTALLER;1

525.5How do _you_ do this form of sneaker-net?IROCZ::D_NELSONDave Nelson LKG1-3/A11 226-5358Thu Mar 20 1997 11:3912
RE: .4

No, it's not intened to be a joke.  On the other hand we assumed that you'd
have a MAC in the office on the LAN or could bring yours into the office
and put it on the LAN.  Since MAC disks have their own format, it kinda
makes sense.  Now I understand that some other OS'es have the ability to 
read and write MAC disks, but this isn't the common way of doing things...

Regards,

Dave
