Apologies for not replying sooner. Have had a busy week with illness to
boot.

Yes I noticed that, but was uncertain how to "prompt" it into action. I
have since found a DCI2 copy of FreeNet within !AcornetF. Followed the
guide, and it looks like EtherP doesn't like my ethernet card.

I also tried the DE600 driver + DCI4 stack from Theo Markettos's site,
but that didn't work either (I know it's a long shot as the driver does
say it's not fuctional yet).

I have since switched to PPP serial networking and have got the A4 and
RPC talking to each other. Works reliably at 19200 baud but no higher.
The new problems I've encountered with this arrangement are:

*ShareFS will not start up on the A4, despite having a clean Uniboot
sequence and its associated stack. My work around so far was to use
DeltaNet FTP on the RPC and FTPc on the A4. Any ideas as to why Access
won't appear on the A4's iconbar?

*The RiscPC will not do any kind of NAT (running ROS 4.39), meaning that
the A4 can only talk to the RiscPC and not to any other machine on the
network, nor the internet. The "Act as IP router" box has been ticked on
the RPC, with no obvious effects.

I have managed to get Navaho to act as a HTTP proxy (inbetween it
crashing and locking up my RPC). I also found !JFProxy v1.06, but that
refused to start up, complaining of an unknown SWI in SocketLib (running
JFShared V2.54). Does anyone know of a reliable RISC OS based proxy or
NAT utility?

Either way I shall continue to experiment.

Cheers,
